Seventeen we were too young
to be thinking about the future
to be worried about the consequence of fun...
it's just fun
Yeah we grew up oh so fast
now we're longing for the innocence
we swore ourselves would never pass
but it has passed
Chorus:
won't you listen to the words i'm speaking
won't you listen to the words i'm speaking
time could take this pain away and save us
if we learn to trust again
Now i'm waking with the dawn
and there's no rest with the hollowness
that's moved into my soul
since you've been gone
where have you gone
I've got nothing left to give
i've given all my gifts to you
now i've just got the bags from where i've 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 i'm glad to be with you, i'm glad we survived
and we'll be alright if we let it ride
and just let it shine tonight
