Seventeen

Seventeen's a little quiet
Bloodshot eyes 'cause I'm crying
And I'm tryna tell 'em that it's nothing
Won't go 'cause I just wanna be invited

Im tired being careful
Tip toe around your feelings 'round the clock
Stay close, let it sink in
Woah there you go
'Cause you said you wont leave alone
Oh no but now I want it

Back when we were seventeen
Wanna keep you next to me
Like when we were seventeen
Got your hands all over me
Now we're under the covers
Close to each other, thinking
Back when we were seventeen
Wanna keep you next to me

You got your eyes on me
I got my eye on you
She got a perfect body
So you like her too
And when I call you up
Just know you ain't my type
You know those type of guys

Im tired being careful
Tip toe around your feelings 'round the clock
Stay close, let it sink in
Woah there you go
'Cause you said you wont leave alone
Oh no but now I want it

Back when we were seventeen
Wanna keep you next to me
Like when we were seventeen
Got your hands all over me
Now we're under the covers
Close to each other, thinking
Back when we were seventeen
Wanna keep you next to me

Here's to that future you painted in your imagination
Trust yourself
Trust in God
Trust in that gut feeling
If there's anyone in this world that's gonna fight for you, it should be you
Can't rely on your best friends or your family to bring out something in yourself
That only you can manifest
Why do the happiest days of my life crash the hardest?
I'd be overjoyed and yet by the end of the day
I'm sobbing on my bedroom floor
I thought it was a birthday thing
Thought it'd pass
Well, welcome to seventeen I guess.

Back when we were seventeen
Wanna keep you next to me
Like when we were seventeen
Got your hands all over me

Back when we were seventeen
Wanna keep you next to me
Like when we were seventeen
Got your hands all over me
Now we're under the covers
Close to each other, thinking
Back when we were seventeen
Wanna keep you next to me
