when we were 17 Lyrics

I called your name, you weren't even there

I took your hand and you pretend to care

I took my chances now I'm not dancing

Cause I don't dance alone

I need someone to stand with

When we were seventeen, we never knew a thing

We would argue and let our voices ring

When we were seventeen, you were all I'd need

But I still need you, and I want you back with me

Wait

I'm not all here

I need your hand to take me there

Whenever you feel down

Invite me to your house

I'll lay on the couch, the lights go out

Now you're on the phone

You lower your tone

Just don't let me go, but you let me go

You said I'm only just a friend

You let me down again

Cause now I'm grown

I'm not like how I was back then

When we were seventeen, we never knew a thing

We would argue and let our voices ring

When we were seventeen, you were all I'd need

But I still need you, and I want you back with me

And I, I really wanna let it go

But you're tethered baby, you're tethered to my soul

So take me home

And stay 'till dawn

but I know you won't cause you're already gone

When we were seventeen, we never knew a thing

We would argue and let our voices ring

When we were seventeen, you were all I'd need

But I still need you, I want you back with me

I want you back with me
