Seventeen

LETRA

Seventeen

I see a part of me in you
It's someone that I used to be, it's someone that I knew
Staring at the posters on the wall
Strumming on an old guitar to make sense of it all

And I don't know you well
But I know seventeen
How your heart aches, your bones shake
Life's hanging on a dream
At seventeen
Better buckle up, honey
The world is at your feet

I've felt the pining for something more
That little bolt of lightning arriving at your door
The music in the basement and the moonlight on the street
You know you're going places
so goodbye is still bittersweet

And the years, they roll
But I know seventeen
How your heart aches, your bones shake
Life's hanging on a dream
At seventeen
Better buckle up, honey
The world is at your feet

You could roll the dice and let the gods decide
Don't you hurry, but don't wait your whole damn life
Only thing that's certain
it's gonna be one hell of a ride, oh
Better buckle up, honey, buckle up, honey
Better buckle up, honey
The world is at your feet
