16/17
I want the daytime to
I want the nighttime to
Stop moving I'll just lay here by your side
I want the seasons to
Mean something to me and
I want a reason why you're staring right through me
Oh darling in the hospital you said
Don't want to think about it
I don't want anything to regret
Now here it is your fingers in the cold
Touching on your body where you feel like you've grown old
And I wait a lifetime in the queue outside the door
Brought a magazine I didn't't feel like reading anymore
You've been up for sixteen hours
How're you going to blow seventeen candles out?
Oh darling in your loudest voice you go
Don't want to think about it
I don't want anybody to know
You've been up for sixteen hours
Now how're you going to blow seventeen candles out?
Seventeen candles, seventeen candles
Nothing too much I can think of round here
Cleaned up the yard, got the Christmas card you sent last year
Nothing too heavy just a party at a friend's home
School's a kind of drag, I'm thinking about travelling on
Seventeen, seventeen, seventeen candles
