Seventeen Lyrics

Time is a thief a killer of youth

But I still hold onto memories of you

And falling in love for the first time

Well it was a hot summer that year

Thought you'd be the one when I first met you

You know when you're that young

You think you know everything

I'm still seventeen in my mind

Still at that place when you were mine

Young wild and free

Just you and me

Wish I could always be

Seventeen

Started out innocent

Next thing you know

We're sneaking out where

The moonlight don't go

And you're kissing me for the first time

Fast forward a few months

Nights were getting cold

You breakin' my heart

Your true colors shown

'Cause you're moving away

And just couldn't wait on me

I'm still seventeen in my mind

Still at that place when you were mine

Young wild and free

Just you and me

Wish I could always be

Seventeen

And I'm still under those evergreens

When you said that you loved me

I loved you from the start

But you tore me apart into nothing

I'm still seventeen in my mind

Kissing you under summer starlight

Young wild and free

Just you and me

Wish I could always be

Seventeen in my mind

Still at that place when you were mine

Young wild and free

Just you and me

Wish I could always be

Seventeen
