Lyrics
17
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Kiss the nape, of my back
And lay me down in the silence.
I like the way you take me out.
Half my end turns to vio.len.ce
I love you
Young blind and dumb
And you love me
Upside and down
Still darling, still we can be 17
Feels like the day, that we met
The bite of frost, on the sidewalk
The morning glare, the nervous calm
The need to touch, the fear to talk
Oh I love you
Young blind and dumb
And you love me
Upside and down
Love you, young blind and dumb
Love me, upside and down
Still darling, still we can be 17
Grandfather talks, fire pops
The floor creaks, in a chorus
How was your day? I missed your face
But I light up when that door opens
I hate Wisconsin, the heaters broken
I miss my home on the pacific
But ill push through it, we all get homesick
But this is home now, cause you're in it.
And in love you..
You love me..
I love you, young blind and dumb
And you love me upside and down
Love you, young blind and dumb
And you love me, upside and down
Still darling, we can be...
Still darling, we can be seventeen.
