Edge Of Seventeen

Just like the white-winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white-winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
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
Baby, nothin' else mattered
He was no more than a baby then
Well, he seemed broken-hearted
Something within him
But the moment that I first laid
Eyes on him all alone
On the edge of seventeen
Just like the white-winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white-winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
I went today
Maybe I will go again tomorrow
And the music there
It was hauntingly familiar
When I see you doing
What I try to do for me
With the words from a poet
And the voice from a choir
And a melody
Nothing else mattered
Just like the white-winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white-winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
The clouds never expect it
When it rains
But the sea changes colors
But the sea does not change
And so with the slow graceful flow of age
I went forth with an age-old
Desire to please
On the edge of seventeen
Just like the white-winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white-winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Well, then suddenly
There was no one left standing in the hall
Yeah yeah
In a flood of tears
That no one really ever heard fall at all
Oh I went searchin' for an answer
Up the stairs and down the hall
Not to find an answer
Just to hear the call
Of a nightbird singing
Come away, come away, come away
Just like the white-winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white-winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Well, I hear you in the morning
And I hear you at nightfall
Sometimes to be near you
Is to be unable to hear you
My love
I'm a few years older than you
Just like the white-winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white-winged dove
