When I was seventeen
My heart and head were full of brilliant dreams
Assembled in the light of a day
That seems so far away, away
And now
When I was seventeen
When I was seventeen
I thought we knew everything
We knew everything
No responsibility
Endless possibility
What on earth could possibly hurt me
Space and light and dreams
That's all people need, and a place to sleep
The music and the songs that you play
Sound so far away, away
And now
When I was seventeen
When I was seventeen
I thought we knew everything
We knew everything
When I was seventeen I thought we knew everything
Do do do do do do....
When I was seventeen
When I was seventeen
When I was seventeen
Do do do do do do...
When I was seventeen
When I was seventeen
