Edge Of Seventeen

And the days go by

Like a strand in the wind

In the web that is my own

I begin again

Said to my friend

'Cause nothin' else mattered

But the moment

That I first laid

Eyes on him

All alone on the edge of

Seventeen

And just like the one winged dove.

Sings a song

Sounds like she's singing

Ooh baby ooh, said ooh

Just like the one winged dove

Sings a song

Sounds like she's singing

Ooh baby ooh, said ooh

Well I went today, maybe I will go again

Tomorrow

Yeah, Yeah...

Well the music there well it was hauntingly

Familiar

And I see you doing

What I tried to do for me

With the words from a poet

And a voice from a choir

And a melody

'Cause nothing else mattered

Just like the one winged dove.

Sings a song

Sounds like she's singing

Ooh baby ooh, said ooh

Just like the one winged dove

Sings a song

Sounds like she's singing

Ooh baby ooh, said ooh

Well I hear you

(If I hear you)

In the morning

(In the morning)

And I hear you

(And I hear you)

At nightfall

And sometimes to be near you

Is to be unable my love

I'm a few years older than you

My love

And just like the one winged dove.

Sings a song

Sounds like she's singing

Ooh baby ooh, said ooh

Just like the one winged dove

Sings a song

Sounds like she's singing

Ooh, ooh, ooh

All alone on the edge of seventeen

All alone on the edge of seventeen

All alone on the edge of seventeen

All alone on the edge of seventeen
