Seventeen

Fine, we're damaged, really damaged

But that does not make us wise

We're not special, we're not different

We don't choose who lives or dies

Let's be normal, see bad movies

Sneak a beer and watch TV

We'll bake brownies, or go bowling

Don't you want a life with me?

Can't we be seventeen?

That's all I want to do

If you could let me in

I could be good with you

People hurt us

(Or they vanish)

And you're right, that really blows

But we let go

(Take a deep breath)

And go buy some summer clothes

We'll go camping

(Play some poker)

And we'll eat some chili fries

Maybe prom night?

(Maybe dancing?)

Don't stop looking in my eyes (Your eyes)

Can't we be seventeen?

Is that so hard to do?

If you could let me in

I could be good with you

Let us be seventeen

If we still got the right

So, what's it gonna be?

I wanna be with you

(I wanna be with you) Wanna be with you

Tonight

Yeah, we're damaged

(Badly damaged)

But your love's too good to lose

Hold me tighter

(Even closer)

I'll stay if I'm what you choose

(Can't we be seventeen?)

If I am what you choose

(If we still got the right)

'Cause you're the one I choose

(You're the one I choose)

You're the one I choose
