I'm 15 for a moment
Caught in between 10 and 20
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
Staring at the photo of his parents, Neville Longbottom stood alone in the Room of Requirement. Daydreaming, he ignored all reality, just wishing his parents hadn't been tortured the way they had. He was proud of them, yes, but he would trade pride for their sanity any day. At fifteen years old, Neville had already gone through a lot, much more than perhaps anyone besides Harry Potter. All he wanted was for life to be normal.
I'm 22 for a moment
And she feels better than ever
And we're on fire
Making our way back from Mars
The world was irrelevant. All that mattered now, at twenty-two, was Hannah Abbott. Romance was everywhere, and the two were very, very close. A cosmic new emotion and feeling was presented to Neville. All he cared about was her. The two were on fire.
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose
15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
The next day, he was thinking back to being fifteen. He had so much time on his hands back then, yet sometimes not enough. He wished to be fifteen again. He wished to stay the age he was. He wished to age like everybody else. He really didn't know, but he had a long time to decide. After all, he had a hundred years to live.
I'm 33 for a moment
Still the man, but you see I'm a they
A kid on the way, babe
A family on my mind
He was thirty-three now. A man like Neville was never alone anymore; Hannah was always by side. Neville was so excited when she told him and pulled his hand onto her stomach that he nearly passed out. Much more than just he mattered now.
I'm 45 for a moment
The sea is high
And I'm heading into a crisis
Chasing the years of my life
Neville had grown much in his lifetime. All he wanted was to feel young again and re-encounter the best moments of his lifetime. After all, this life he was leading now was often difficult, and the mid-life crisis he was slipping into wasn't helping.
15... there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose yourself within a morning star
15... I'm all right with you
15... there never a wish better than this
When you only got a 100 years to live
He was fifteen once a long time ago. At fifteen he had so much time, sometimes too little and sometimes too much. At fifteen everything was all right between him and his friends. He wished he could be fifteen again. He wished to stay exactly this age, forty-five. He wished to age like everyone else. But he still had a lot of time to decide. After all, he had a hundred years to live.
Half time goes by
Suddenly you're wise
Another blink of an eye
67 is gone
The sun is getting high
We're moving on
And then he was an adult; a middle-aged, family-man adult. Then, what seemed like just a few days, years have passed. Getting near seventy, Neville began to accept his fate and stop wishing he was fifteen forever.
I'm 99 for a moment
Dying for just another moment
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
Neville was near one hundred now. He laid down in his bedroom, a room that had been empty for far too long. After all, Hannah left him a couple years before. He slipped into a reverie, one to rival the ones of his early days, just thinking about rejoining her and his parents.
15 there's still time for you
22 I feel her too
33 you're on your way
Every day's a new day
Just before slipping away, Neville remembered. At fifteen, everything seemed like it would last forever. He had all the time in the world. At twenty-two, Hannah was everything, the only thing, he wanted. At thirty-three, he was an expectant father with a smile to match, never paying a thought to the troubles of aging, yet, at the same time, fearing death would come too soon. Things had been rough at times for Neville, but he only had to remember; every day's a new day.
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey 15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
His hundredth birthday. Remembering his past. Fifteen years old. So much time. But then he smiled and let it all go. That's all you can do when you only got a hundred years to live.
