When I was sixteen
I had it figured out
Nothing but big dreams
Nothing to slow me down
I moved to the city
Headed out Brooklyn bound
And crying a river
Kept putting the fire out
(Oh, oh, oh) I wish I knew then what I know now
(Oh, oh, oh) to get me through when I don't know how
Even if I've fallen running out of luck
(Oh, oh, oh) I'm at the bottom but there's one way up
One way up, yeah, yeah
One way up
One way up
One way up
Walking a tightrope
I'm almost at the edge
Keeping my eyes closed
Closer with every step
All of my high hopes
I still haven't found them yet
The only thing I know
I'll get there in the end
(Oh, oh, oh) I wish I knew then what I know now
(Oh, oh, oh) to get me through when I don't know how
Even if I've fallen running out of luck
(Oh, oh, oh) I'm at the bottom but there's one way up
One way up, yeah, yeah
One way up
One way up
One way up
(Oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh)
One way up
One way up, yeah, yeah
One way up
One way up
