[Verse 1]
You say you wish that you had gone out more while you still had the chance
The ones you envy are kept up at night by parallel remarks
You're arguing with no one when you say that it's not fair
Don't tell yourself to run ahead and, "I will meet you there"
[Pre-Chorus]
You never said
You never said
You never thought you needed to
You never said
You never said
You know full well you need to
[Chorus]
It’s alright now, not what you hoped, but that’s okay
Teenage hopes are never less than perfect, anyway
It’s alright now, not what you hoped, but that’s okay
Teenage hopes are never less than perfect, anyway
[Verse 2]
I hold my breath when you say you thought of me
Because I worry it reminds you more of who I’d like to be
But we’re made of puzzle pieces, and I hope that I am right
When I guess the parts you recognise could be the parts you like
[Pre-Chorus]
I never said
I never said
I never thought I needed to
I never said
I never said
I know fair well I need to
[Chorus]
It’s alright now, not what you hoped, but that’s okay
Teenage hopes are never less than perfect, anyway
It’s alright now, not what you hoped, but that’s okay
Teenage hopes are never less than perfect, anyway
[Pre-Chorus]
You never said
You never said
You never thought you needed to
You never said
You never said
You know full well we need to
[Chorus]
It’s alright now, not what you hoped, but that’s okay
Teenage hopes are never less than perfect, anyway
It’s alright now, not what you hoped, but that’s okay
Teenage hopes are never less than perfect, anyway
[Chorus]
It’s alright now, not what you hoped, but that’s okay
Teenage hopes are never less than perfect, anyway
It’s alright now, not what you hoped, but that’s okay
Teenage hopes are never less than perfect, anyway
