Seventeen

Open windows on the avenue

Down the alley I can hide on you

Come and find me where the days are green

Seventeen

I can meet you in the afternoon

We can talk until we’re out of tune

Kiss me like we’re on the silver screen

Seventeen

I feel you in my labours

I feel you in my fears

I feel you in my failures

I feel you in my older years

Broken windows at the factory

Lazy moonlight on the scenery

Empty bottles in a dark ravine

Seventeen

I feel you in my labours

I feel you in my tears

I feel you in my failures

I feel you in my older years

I can meet you in the afternoon

We can talk until we’re out of tune

Once upon a time I had a dream
