| [00:17.18] |
She bought a ticket on a midnight train |
| [00:20.99] |
To a place she'd never leave again |
| [00:24.83] |
She blamed it all on her daddy's sins |
| [00:28.68] |
I blamed it all on me |
| [00:31.12] |
|
| [00:32.71] |
And I was just a foolish boy |
| [00:36.35] |
It was love enough to fill the void |
| [00:40.11] |
Said the words to hear the noise |
| [00:44.05] |
It was deafening |
| [00:46.67] |
|
| [00:49.67] |
I never knew that things would change |
| [00:53.24] |
What we were then, what we became |
| [00:56.90] |
Oh, we were seventeen |
| [01:02.50] |
|
| [01:03.38] |
They found her there late that night |
| [01:07.03] |
On a bed under hotel lights |
| [01:10.87] |
Trying to make a couple wrong things right |
| [01:14.73] |
Start over clean |
| [01:17.70] |
|
| [01:18.74] |
She never did say goodbye |
| [01:22.78] |
I never did apologize |
| [01:26.28] |
I knew the words, but I could not lie |
| [01:30.32] |
I just watched her leave |
| [01:32.98] |
Watched her leave |
| [01:34.68] |
|
| [01:35.70] |
I never knew that things would change |
| [01:39.46] |
What we were then, what we became |
| [01:43.14] |
Oh, we were seventeen |
| [01:48.37] |
|
| [01:51.01] |
We wasted time, we wasted tears |
| [01:54.65] |
We waved goodbye to golden years |
| [01:58.44] |
Oh, we were seventeen |
| [02:03.65] |
|
| [02:06.71] |
Beneath the wreckage there's a reason, a reason |
| [02:14.44] |
Something they looked so hard to see |
| [02:21.99] |
I took and placed the blame |
| [02:25.82] |
But still I feel the same |
| [02:29.60] |
Someone just say it wasn't me |
| [02:35.04] |
|
| [02:39.68] |
I don't think about her like I should |
| [02:42.98] |
I used to try but it did no good |
| [02:46.85] |
She'd forgive me if she only could |
| [02:50.77] |
We were seventeen |
| [02:57.08] |
|
| [02:58.53] |
|
