Seventeen |
| She bought a ticket on a midnight train |
| To a place she’d never leave again |
| She blamed it all on her daddy’s sins |
| I blamed it all on me |
| And I was just a foolish boy |
| It was love enough to fill the void |
| Said the words to hear the noise |
| It was deafening |
| I never knew that things would change |
| What we were then, what we became |
| Oh, we were seventeen |
| They found her there late that night |
| On a bed under hotel lights |
| Trying to make a couple wrong things right |
| Start over clean |
| She never did say goodbye |
| I never did apologize |
| I knew the words, but I could not lie |
| I just watched her leave |
| Watched her leave |
| I never knew that things would change |
| What we were then, what we became |
| Oh, we were seventeen |
| We wasted time, we wasted tears |
| We waved goodbye to golden years |
| Oh, we were seventeen |
| Beneath the wreckage there’s a reason, a reason |
| Something they looked so hard to see |
| I took and placed the blame |
| But still I feel the same |
| Someone just say it wasn’t me |
| I don’t think about her like I should |
| I used to try but it did no good |
| She’d forgive me if she only could |
| We were seventeen |
