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've still got the right

So what's it gonna be?

I wanna be with you

I wanna be with you tonight

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've still got the right

'Cause you're the one I choose

You're the one I choose

You're the one I choose
