We were only seventeen
Rock & roll and nicotine
Girls meet boys and boys meet girls who felt like you
My whole world falls apart
Left with broken hearts
We were only seventeen
I was standing there in my blue jeans
She smiled and walked past me
And our love was like a spark to gasoline
It was you and me
We were only seventeen
Made such a mess of everything
Souvenirs and broken dreams
And photographs of you and me
When we were only seventeen
We were watching MTV
Staying up 'til a quarter after three
And the world was ours for the taking
Time stood still, our hearts were racing
But it falls apart
Left with broken hearts
We were only seventeen
I was standing there in my blue jeans
She smiled and walked past me
And our love was like a spark to gasoline
It was you and me
We were only seventeen
Made such a mess of everything
Souvenirs and broken dreams
And photographs of you and me
When we were only seventeen
Do you believe that a canvas can be painted twice?
Painted white
Do you believe that a canvas can be painted twice?
Painted white
Wash away the guilt and shame and take my hands
Steal my pain away
And I'll find rushed inside your arms with all the memories
Do you believe?
Do you believe?
We were only seventeen
Made such a mess of everything
Souvenirs and broken dreams
And photographs of you and me
When we were only seventeen
We were only seventeen
I was standing there in my blue jeans
She smiled and walked past me
And our love was like a spark to gasoline
It was you and me
We were only seventeen
Made such a mess of everything
Souvenirs and broken dreams
And photographs of you and me
When we were only seventeen
