Forever Seventeen
I was long hair didn't care, 'bout breaking the rules
You were straight-A straight laced and there was nothing to do
On a Saturday night in a nowhere town
So we'd just drive around
Down to the river and back again
With you were shotgun in my chevy
Your hands up in the air
So care free, just you and me
So naive and unaware
That in a blink of an eye it would pass us by
For a while it seemed like were living the dream
Like we were gonna be
Forever seventeen
Girl we struck that match and it set our world on fire
Reckless with a passion, had I known I'd held on tighter
I still see your face in the dashboard glow
Where you are tonight I don't know
But when I think of you I can't help but smile
It's been a while
Since you were shotgun in my chevy
Your hands up in the air
So care free, just you and me
So naive and unaware
That in a blink of an eye it would pass us by
For a while it seemed like were living the dream
Like we were gonna be
Forever seventeen
I'm sittin' here thinkin' bout goin' back
I'd love to do it all again
Just one more taste of what we had, way back when
On a Saturday night in a nowhere town
Nothing to do but drive around
Down to the river and back again
With you were shotgun in my chevy
Your hands up in the air
So care free, just you and me
So naive and unaware
That in a blink of an eye it would pass us by
For a while it seemed like were living the dream
Like we were gonna be
Forever seventeen
Yeah forever seventeen
You were straight-A straight laced and there was nothing to do
On a Saturday night in a nowhere town
So we'd just drive around
Down to the river and back again
With you were shotgun in my chevy
Your hands up in the air
So care free, just you and me
So naive and unaware
That in a blink of an eye it would pass us by
For a while it seemed like were living the dream
Like we were gonna be
Forever seventeen
Girl we struck that match and it set our world on fire
Reckless with a passion, had I known I'd held on tighter
I still see your face in the dashboard glow
Where you are tonight I don't know
But when I think of you I can't help but smile
It's been a while
Since you were shotgun in my chevy
Your hands up in the air
So care free, just you and me
So naive and unaware
That in a blink of an eye it would pass us by
For a while it seemed like were living the dream
Like we were gonna be
Forever seventeen
I'm sittin' here thinkin' bout goin' back
I'd love to do it all again
Just one more taste of what we had, way back when
On a Saturday night in a nowhere town
Nothing to do but drive around
Down to the river and back again
With you were shotgun in my chevy
Your hands up in the air
So care free, just you and me
So naive and unaware
That in a blink of an eye it would pass us by
For a while it seemed like were living the dream
Like we were gonna be
Forever seventeen
Yeah forever seventeen
