Seventeen

Seventeen, I was living life Chasing dreams and my hopes were high Trying to get around my fear of When and where do I go from here I asked somebody close to me Who could see a lot further than a boy could see Oh, oh, oh and he said... Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by I still feel seventeen inside, not one day over Don't let the trials of life, change who you are tonight Stay seventeen each time you get one year older I said you're at that time of life when your heart is strong Your future's bright, you can do no wrong And don't you let those feelings out of sight Keep a hold of them as the years go rolling by These words have always stuck with me But now I'm only getting what it all appears to mean Oh, oh, oh and he said... Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by I still feel seventeen inside, not one day over Don't let the trials of life, change who you are tonight Stay seventeen each time you get one year older He said... my years have come and gone, in oh such little time And I hope you live your life the way that I lived mine Stay young at heart, stay young in mind So I said... Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by I'm still seventeen inside, not one day over I won't let the trials of life, change who I am tonight Stay seventeen each time you get one year older One year older, one year older... oh my oh my oh my oh my So stay seventeen each time you get one year older.
