[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
30 years from now
I’ll be looking back
Knowing that these were the best parts of life
All my friends will know it too
They’re also looking back
Knowing life has lows, but those years were always highs
Mmm
We’ll think about
[Chorus]
Doing things we thought were cool
Hanging out and breaking the rules
Finding our own place right here
Yeah that's the glory of those teen years
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
And in a couple of years
I’ll be growing up
Driving cars, staying out, then sneaking back in
I’ll be sitting with a beer
Will some bills to pay
Knowing that was my life being lived to its fullest
Mmm
And then I’ll think about
[Chorus]
Doing things we thought were cool
Hanging out and breaking the rules
Finding our own place right here
Yeah thats the glory of those teen years
Exploring love for the first time
Saving up your pennies and dimes
Doing things like we had nothing to fear
Yeah that's the glory of those teen years
[Guitar Solo]
[Hook]
And when I’m on my death-bed
With all my family around me
There’s gonna be one thought runnin’ through my head
(My time as a teen)
And if I get live again
Even though it sounds crazy
I’ll be waiting for the glory years
(My time as a teen)
Mmm
I’ll be thinking ‘bout
Doing things we thought were cool
Hanging out and breaking the rules
Finding our own place right here (our own place right here)
Yeah that’s the glory of those teen years!
[Chorus]
Exploring love for the first time
Saving up pennies and dimes
Doing things like we had nothing to fear
Yeah that's the glory of
Doing things we thought were cool (we thought were cool)
Hanging out and breaking the rules (breaking the rules)
Finding our own place right here (mmm)
Yeah that's the glory of those teen years
Exploring love for the first time (for the first time)
Saving up pennies and dimes (pennies and dimes)
Doing things like we had nothing to fear (mm)
Yeah that's the glory of those teen years
Yeah that's the glory of those teen years
Mmm

【日本語訳詞】
30年後の僕はきっと思い返す
あの日々こそ人生で一番の瞬間だったと
仲間たちも同じように
泣いて笑って過ごした日々を覚えてる
ああ　思い出すんだ

あの頃はカッコつけて
ルール破って夜を歩き
自分たちの居場所を探してた
それがティーンの栄光さ

数年後　僕は大人になって
車を走らせ　夜遅く帰り
ビール片手にため息つきながら
あれが人生の全力だったと気づく
ああ　また思い出すんだ

初めての恋に胸が震え
小銭を握りしめて過ごした日々
怖いものなんて何もなかった
それがティーンの栄光さ

【ロシア語訳詞】
Через тридцать лет я снова вспомню,
Как те дни были лучшими в моей жизни.
И друзья мои скажут то же самое —
Мы смеялись, плакали, жили всерьёз.
Да… мы вспомним это.

Мы делали всё, что казалось крутым,
Нарушали правила, шли куда хотели,
Искали место, где будем своими —
Вот слава юности нашей.

Через пару лет я стал взрослеть,
Ехал домой поздно, тихо входил,
С пивом в руке понимал вдруг ясно —
Тогда я жил на полную силу.
Да… и снова вспомню.

Первую любовь, что дрожала в сердце,
Мелочь в кармане и летние дни,
Мы ничего тогда не боялись —
Вот слава юности нашей.

【韓国語訳詞】
삼십 년 뒤의 나는 분명 알 거야
그 시절이 내 인생의 가장 빛난 순간
친구들도 모두 말하겠지
울고 웃으며 보낸 날들을 기억한다고
아… 떠오르게 돼

우린 멋있다며 무모하게 굴고
규칙을 깨고 밤거릴 걸으며
우리만의 자리를 찾고 있었어
그게 바로 틴에이저의 영광이야

몇 년 뒤 난 어른이 되어
차를 몰고 늦은 밤 몰래 들어오며
맥주 한 모금에 깨닫게 됐지
그때가 내 삶의 전부였다는 걸
아… 다시 떠오르네

처음 사랑에 떨리던 마음
동전을 모아 보냈던 날들
두려운 건 아무것도 없었어
그게 바로 틴에이저의 영광이야

【中国語（繁文）訳詞】
三十年後的我一定會想起
那段日子是生命最耀眼的時光
朋友們也會這麼說
我們一起哭、一起笑的那些年
啊…全都浮現眼前

那時我們覺得什麼都很酷
打破規則奔向夜色
尋找屬於自己的角落
那就是青春的榮耀

幾年後我開始長大
深夜開車偷偷回到家門
手裡的啤酒讓我明白
那才是我最用力活著的時候
啊…再次想起來

第一次心動的悸動
攢著零錢度過的夏天
那時候我們無所畏懼
那就是青春的榮耀
