i wore a lacy prom dress

i wore my best friend’s earrings

i had a lot to process

i covered up my feelings


dressed in pink with gold dusted eyelids

we smoked weed at three in the morning

my best friend drank way more than i did

there was so much i was exploring

honestly even under the circumstances

i’m still the type of girl to get excited over slow dances

ooohh i wish that you had been my prom date

guess i learned the truth about myself a little too late

i wish i knew you when we were sixteen

because i have to tell you i would die to be your prom queen

ooohh i wish that you went to my high school

i think i would have liked you even then because you’re so cool

all i see is you and me dancing in a daydream

because i have to tell you i would die to be your prom queen

i like when you call me pretty

i hate when you hang up on me

i wish you were in the city

i love when i think you want me

big t shirt and little gold glasses

i called you at three in the morning

this year you won’t be in my classes

there is so much i am exploring


honestly even under the circumstances

i’m still the type of girl to get excited over slow dances

ooohh i wish that you had been my prom date

guess i learned the truth about myself a little too late

i wish i knew you when we were sixteen

because i have to tell you i would die to be your prom queen

ooohh i wish that you went to my high school

i think i would have liked you even then because you’re so cool

all i see is you and me dancing in a daydream

because i have to tell you i would die to be your prom queen

my high school friends and i went out to college bars each weekend

we made up stories bout ourselves, I never had a boyfriend

nothing was wrong nothing was right nothing was really real

especially cause i was shutting down the way i used to feel...

...to be honest i wish that you would kiss me swaying while come on eileen is playing

ooohh i wish that you had been my prom date

guess i learned the truth about myself a little too late

i wish i knew you when we were sixteen

because i have to tell you i would die to be your prom queen

ooohh i wish that you went to my high school

i think i would have liked you even then because you’re so cool

all i see is you and me dancing in a daydream

because i have to tell you i would die to be your prom queen

prom queen
