It was July 

And we were 17

Nothin' goin' on at the Dairy Queen

So we drove to the river

And he gave me his ring

And I melted in his arms like my ice cream

And nobody knows how far we went

Except the river and me and the moon and him

Sometimes I wanna go back again

Hey girls you know what I mean

Sometimes don't you wish you had a time machine

Maggie May on the radio

On still away and the dash boards glows

I hear that song and I still melt

And it take me back to the way we felt

And nobody knows how far we went

Except the river and me and the moon and him

Sometimes I wanna go back again

Hey girls you know what I mean

Sometimes don't you wish you had a time machine



(Instrument break)



I close my eyes 

And I say a prayer

And I hit that button and I'll be right there

And nobody knows how far we went

Except the river and me and the moon and him

Sometimes I wanna go back again

Hey girls you know what I mean

Sometimes don't you wish you could stay 17

Hey girls you know what I mean 

Sometimes don't you wish you had a time machine

Hey girls you know what I mean 

Sometimes don't you wish you had a time machine

A time machine

Oh a time machine
