Edge Of Seventeen

Just like the white winged dove sings a song

Sounds like she's singing, "ooo, ooo, ooo"

Just like the white winged dove sings a song

Sounds like she's singing, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"

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

Well, he was no more, than a baby then

Well, he seemed broked 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, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"

Just like the white winged dove sings a song

Sounds like she's singing, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"

I went today maybe I will go again tommorow, yeah, yeah

And the music there it was hauntingly familiar

And I see you doing what I tried to do for me

With the words of a poet and the voice of a choir

And a melody, nothing else mattered

Just like the white winged dove sings a song

Sounds like she's singing, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"

Just like the white winged dove sings a song

Sounds like she's singing, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"

The clouds never expect it when it rains

But the sea changes colours but the sea does not change

And so with the slow gracefull 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, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"

Just like the white winged dove sings a song

Sounds like she's singing, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"

Just like the white winged dove sings a song

Sounds like she's singing, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"

Just like the white winged dove sings a song

Sounds like she's singing, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"

Just like the white winged dove sings a song

Sounds like she's singing, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"

Just like the white winged dove sings a song

Sounds like she's singing, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"

Just like the white winged dove sings a song

Sounds like she's singing, "ooo" baby "ooo", said "ooo"
