Lyrics
Maybe she’s just too old for me

Living in a teenage fantasy

Feeling there’s so much we could be

She’s got me wishing, wishing I was 23

Man, she’s crazy, but I don’t care

She’s sexy and she’s a millionaire

The way she gets me is so unfair

Not your typical rich girl

She’s smoking hot, if you know what I mean

Tight jeans and she loves photography

And everything that’s in between

She’s been around the world

I know she’s graduated,

And I’m not quite educated

I’m young, you know

Age is overrated

Maybe she’s just too old for me

Living in a teenage fantasy

Baby, there’s so much we could be

Every time I’m with her, calling me a dreamer

Maybe she’s just out of my reach

Maybe her boyfriend’s a Marine

Even though I’m nameless (HEY)

She’s famous (HEY)

She’s got me wishing, wishing I was 23

Whoa-ohh

Oh oh-oh

Wishin’ I was 23

Whoa-ohh

She’s got me wishing, oh yeah

I think about her everyday

Going insane thinking about what to say

What am I doing anyway?

Am I even on her radar?

I know she’s graduated

I’m not quite educated

I’m young, you know

Age is overrated

Maybe she’s just too old for me

Living in a teenage fantasy

Baby, there’s so much we could be

Every time I’m with her, calling me a dreamer

Whoa-ohh

Oh oh-oh

Wishin’ I was 23

Oh ohh

I’ve got her wishing, oh

If I was older

She would let me take her

To watch the stars at night

We can dance, we can kiss, underneath the moonlight

And if it got colder,

She would let me hold her

Wrapped up in fairytales,

Gotta wake up from this dream

Maybe she’s just too old for me

Maybe her boyfriend’s a Marine

Even though I’m nameless

She’s famous

She’s got me wishin’

Maybe she’s just too old for me

Living in a teenage fantasy

Baby, there’s so much we could be

Every time I’m with her, calling me a dreamer

Woah-ohh

Woah-oh-oh

Wishing I was 23

Oh ohh

I’ve got her wishing

Wishing she was 17

Woah-oh (x2)

Wishing I was 23 (x2)
