 Intro – , , ,

Verse 1

 Let's be honest, you're not flawless

 But you're as close as anything I've seen

 You're not the woman that you envisioned

 But your life is not a broken time machine

No, it's not that bad

Ya know, it's really not that bad

Chorus

A little midnight chardonnay

 Smooth the edges off the day

 A little taste of maryjane

 Makes you feel young again

All those years around your eyes

 Always take you by surprise

 You've been living in a dream

 Forever 17

Verse 2

 A reckless lover, a father figure

 You search for both in every man you meet

 You're not a mother and sometimes you wonder

 If a son or daughter just might make you feel complete

 But no, you don't need someone else

No, it's hard enough to learn to love yourself

-Chorus 2x

A little midnight chardonnay

 Smooth the edges off the day

 A little taste of maryjane

 Makes you feel young again

All those years around your eyes

 Always take you by surprise

 You've been living in a dream

 Forever 17
