Looking back now, well it makes me laugh
We were growin our hair, we were cuttin' class
Knew it all already, there was nothing to learn
We were strikin' matches just to watch 'em burn
Thinking back on the years of Mackenzie Falls and So Random!, newlywed couple Sonny Monroe and Chad Dylan Cooper could only laugh. All the hell they raised, with the only reason simply being that they were teenagers, they knew that those were the days they would always remember.
Listen to our music just a little too loud
We were hangin' in there with the outcast crowd
Headin' to the rapids with some discount beer
It was a long train tussle but we had no fear.
The simplicity of the time always struck Chad. Back then, his only worry was how to have a good time and be a normal teenager, doing what normal teenagers do, without the paparazzi following his every move.
Man I don't know, where the time goes
But It sure goes fast, just like that
We were wanna be rebels who didn't have a clue
With our Rock n' roll T-shirts, and our typically bad attitudes
Had no excuses for the things that we'd done
We were brave, we were crazy, we were mostly
Young
It seems like just yesterday the couple were teens that 'hated each other'. The rebellious teenage years seemed so close, yet so far for the now responsible young adults. The pair were thankful for growing out of it though, since once they stopped their rebellion, they discovered their feelings for each other were not hate. Quite the opposite of hate, actually.
Talked a good game when we were out with the guys
But in the back seat we were awkward and shy
Girls were a mystery that we couldn't explain
And I guess there are some things that are never gonna change
Both Chad and Sonny still remembered the first date. For Sonny, this memory was not so pleasant. I mean, what girl wants her date to drink too much water and throw up on her because he was THAT nervous!
Man I don't know, where the time goes
But It sure goes fast, just like that
We were wanna be rebels who didn't have a clue
With our Rock n' roll T-shirts, and our typically bad attitudes
Had no excuses for the things that we'd done
We were brave, we were crazy, we were mostly
Young
Young, Young, Yeah Wishin' we were older
Young, Hey I wish it wasn't over
Along with the bad memories and the rocky start to Chad and Sonny came the ending of their shows. It was time to say goodbye to all of the friends they had met and come to be close with, and hello to new opportunities. When it came to saying goodbye to each other, though, it simply could not be done. So Chad, being Chad, did what Sonny least expected… he got down on one knee.
Man I don't know, where the time goes
But It sure goes fast, just like that
We were wanna be rebels who didn't have a clue
With our Rock n' roll T-shirts, and our typically bad attitudes
Had no excuses for the things that we'd done
We were brave, we were crazy, we were mostly
Young
Young, Hey wishin' we were older, wish it wasn't over
After a long engagement since they were so young when they got together, the two finally married, and became the new Brangelina. Channy was the greatest couple of their generation, and the fans? They wouldn't have it any other way.
So, what'd you think? Good or bad?
