Lyrics
My birthday candles
Have all gone out
The party's through
And I'm alone with you
Woah (what a nice way to turn seventeen)
I feel your sweet lips
Against my cheek
The lights are off
Your shoulder feels so soft
(What a nice way to turn seventeen)
My friends all bought me
So many gifts
But yours is the one I'm proudest of
A golden heart
Inscribed to me
("Happy birthday with all my love")
It feels like heaven
Here in your arms
Don't let me go
'Cause gee, I love, oh, I love you so
(What a nice way to turn seventeen)
I'm seventeen
