Seventeen

Seventeen Lyrics

Fine, we're damaged
Really damaged
But that does not make us wise
We're not special
We're not different
We don't choose who lives or dies
Let's be normal, see bad movies
Sneak a beer and watch TV
We'll bake brownies, or go bowling
Don't you want a life with me?
Can't we be seventeen?
That's all I want to do
If you could let me in
I could be good with you
People hurt us

Or they vanish

And you're right, it really blows
But we let go

Take a deep breath

And go buy some summer clothes
We'll go camping

Play some poker

And we'll eat some chili fries
Maybe prom night

Maybe dancing

Don't stop looking in my eyes!

Your eyes!

Can't we be seventeen?
Is that so hard to do?
If you could let me in
I could be good with you!
Let us be seventeen
If we've still got the right

So what's it gonna be?
I wanna be with you

I wanna be with you

Wanna be with you

Tonight!

Yeah, we're damaged

Badly damaged

But your love's too good to lose

Hold me tighter

Even closer

I'll stay if I'm what you choose

Can't we be seventeen?

If I am what you choose

If we've still got the right

'Cause you're the one I choose

You're the one I choose

You're the one I choose
