My Favorite English Teacher

(Verse 1)

College application on my desk, don’t even wanna look at it

Feelin’ scared to think about what I might miss

All the kids I grew up with, memories so bright

Homecoming week, those Friday nights

(Pre-Chorus)

My favorite English teacher, early practices, making fun of freshmen

Football games at night, screaming loud, we’d never forget then

Yelling “Go, Fight, Win,”

When I see those colors, I start to cry

(Chorus)

High school wasn’t perfect, no, it had its scars

But it was the best time of my life, beneath those stars

Laughs and tears, friends who made me whole

Those memories live deep in my soul

Yeah, high school wasn’t perfect, but it was my time to fly

The best years of my life, I’ll keep them inside

(Verse 2)

Late nights with friends, dreaming ‘bout the future’s glow

Dances and heartbreak, learning as I go

Every moment, every smile, every tear I’ve known

Built the person I am, made me feel at home

(Pre-Chorus)

My favorite English teacher, early practices, making fun of freshmen

Football games at night, screaming loud, we’d never forget then

Yelling “Go, Fight, Win,” with all my might

When I see those colors, I start to cry

(Chorus)

High school wasn’t perfect, no, it had its scars

But it was the best time of my life, beneath those stars

Laughs and tears, friends who made me whole

Those memories live deep in my soul

Yeah, high school wasn’t perfect, but it was my time to fly

The best years of my life, I’ll keep them inside

(Bridge)

Now I stand here, with a future in my hands

But I’ll never forget those days, those plans

They shaped me, made me who I am today

High school’s forever in my heart to stay

(Chorus)

High school wasn’t perfect, no, it had its scars

But it was the best time of my life, beneath those stars

Laughs and tears, friends who made me whole

Those memories live deep in my soul

Yeah, high school wasn’t perfect, but it was my time to fly

The best years of my life, I’ll keep them inside

(Outro)

College can't wait, but I’ll hold on tight

To those years that felt so right
