Seventeen

歌詞

She bought a ticket on a midnight train To a place she'd never leave again She blamed it all on her daddy's sins I blamed it all on me And I was just a foolish boy It was love enough to fill the void Said the words to hear the noise It was deafening I never knew that things would change What we were then, what we became Oh, we were seventeen They found her there late that night On a bed under hotel lights Trying to make a couple wrong things right Start over clean She never did say goodbye I never did apologize I knew the words, but I could not lie I just watched her leave Watched her leave I never knew that things would change What we were then, what we became Oh, we were seventeen We wasted time, we wasted tears We waved goodbye to golden years Oh, we were seventeen Beneath the wreckage there's a reason, a reason Something they looked so hard to see I took and placed the blame But still I feel the same Someone just say it wasn't me I don't think about her like I should I used to try but it did no good She'd forgive me if she only could We were seventeen
