Forever Seventeen

I was long hair didn't care, 'bout breaking the rules You were straight-A straight laced and there was nothing to do On a Saturday night in a nowhere town So we'd just drive around Down to the river and back again With you were shotgun in my chevy Your hands up in the air So care free, just you and me So naive and unaware That in a blink of an eye it would pass us by For a while it seemed like were living the dream Like we were gonna be Forever seventeen Girl we struck that match and it set our world on fire Reckless with a passion, had I known I'd held on tighter I still see your face in the dashboard glow Where you are tonight I don't know But when I think of you I can't help but smile It's been a while Since you were shotgun in my chevy Your hands up in the air So care free, just you and me So naive and unaware That in a blink of an eye it would pass us by For a while it seemed like were living the dream Like we were gonna be Forever seventeen I'm sittin' here thinkin' bout goin' back I'd love to do it all again Just one more taste of what we had, way back when On a Saturday night in a nowhere town Nothing to do but drive around Down to the river and back again With you were shotgun in my chevy Your hands up in the air So care free, just you and me So naive and unaware That in a blink of an eye it would pass us by For a while it seemed like were living the dream Like we were gonna be Forever seventeen Yeah forever seventeen
