[Verse 1]
I knew before I knew ya
That you were gonna be the one
Slow dancing in the fast lane
That's just what we do where we come from
When you lean in to kiss me
Said, "Boy, you don't deserve me"
Yeah, we started crackin' up
But now, look at us, look at us, look at us

[Chorus]
Yeah, we held on tight, lookin' up all night
At the lights of New York City
When you're seventeen, those basic dreams
Where you're dreamin' right therе with me
It ain't no surprise your blue еyes
Still feel like home to me
We'll always be red, white, and Jersey

[Verse 2]
That summer with the top down
We were singing along to "American Girl"
Big diamond in a small town
When it was you and me against the world
Yeah, we both didn't know any better
That we'd live like that forever

[Chorus]
Yeah, we held on tight, lookin' up all night
At the lights of New York City
When you're seventeen, those basic dreams
Where you're dreamin' right there with me
It ain't no surprise your blue eyes
Still feel like home to me
We'll always be red, white, and Jersey

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Now where have all the summers gone?
Here we are, still goin' strong, goin' strong, goin' strong

[Chorus]
Yeah, we held on tight, lookin' up all night
At the lights of New York City
When you're seventeen, those basic dreams
Where you're dreaming right there with me
It ain't no surprise your blue eyes
Still feel like home to me
We'll always be red, white, and Jersey

[Outro]
Woah
(Woah) Red, white, and Jersey
(Woah) Red, white, and Jersey
Woah
