Only Seventeen

歌詞

Nobody hears when you're talking Too many tears have you calling What can I do - why is it no-one seems to care Where is the love you often wonder Too many nights you wait and wonder How can it be - why do you feel there's no-one there If only you could steal away somehow Maybe they'd understand - what's the use anyhow You're only seventeen Lost in a world where you belong Oh only seventeen Caught in a dream - and always wrong And as the night begins to fall How can you win You're only seventeen Wishing and hoping - sometimes praying Wanting to leave but you keep saying Someday soon Sooner or later you'll be free You know inside your heart That you want to run But it tears you apart 'Cos it can't be done Though you try to laugh There's a photograph That reminds you too much of your dreams There's a chance you'll laugh But that photograph Just reminds you of what might have been You're only seventeen
