Seventeen
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.
Seventeen, seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen
I was a runaway and you were a queen
Our tongues tied in the mezzanine
We were free
No strings on you, no strings on me
I was a cannonball and you were the sea
When I crashed into your blue dream
We were free
Time takes no prisoners, you'll see
When you're seventeen
The thought of a spark could start a fire
Tube top and faded jeans
How we forget how we desire
We were seventeen, seventeen
We had city dreams, city dreams
We were seventeen, seventeen
We had city dreams, city dreams
I was a runaway and you were a jewel
It was paradise in the land of fools
We were free
No strings on you, no strings on me
Free
Time takes no prisoners, you'll see
When you're seventeen
The thought of a spark could start a fire
Tube top and faded jeans
How we forget how we desire
We were seventeen, seventeen
We had city dreams, city dreams
We were seventeen, seventeen
We had city dreams, city dreams
We were seventeen, seventeen
We had city dreams, city dreams
We were seventeen, seventeen
We had city dreams, city dreams
Seventeen, seventeen
City dreams, city dreams
Seventeen, seventeen
City dreams, city dreams
We were seventeen, seventeen
We had city dreams, city dreams
We were seventeen, seventeen
We had city dreams, city dreams
Seventeen, seventeen
City dreams, city dreams
Seventeen, seventeen
City dreams, city dreams
