Seventeen we were too young

To be thinking about the future

To be worried about the consequence of fun. . .

Its just fun



Yeah we grew up oh so fast

Now were longing for the innocence

We swore ourselves would never pass

But it has passed



Chorus:

Wont you listen to the words Im speaking

Wont you listen to the words Im speaking

Time could take this pain away and save us

If we learn to trust again



Now Im waking with the dawn

And theres no rest with the hollowness

thats moved into my soul since youve been gone

Where have you gone



Ive got nothing left to give

Ive given all my gifts to you

Now Ive just got the bags from where Ive been

Where have I been



Chorus



So sorry they hurt us, so sorry they lied

So sorry they left us, so sorry we died inside

But Im glad to be with you, Im glad we survived

And well be alright if we let it ride and just let it shine tonight
