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 Strummin' 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 bittersweet
And the years, they roll But I know
Seventeen How your heart breaks 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 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
