Seventeen

Blue jeans
Remember when we were seventeen?
Green eyes
Your whispers in the dark gave me butterflies
Felt my heart spinning when I saw your face
You turned our bodies into a hurricane
A hurricane

But you don't know what you got till it's gone
When it's blurry, and fades away
You're not longing for the burning sun
Till you're standing in the pouring rain
I'm wishing you could hold me tonight, hold me tonight
'Cause you don't know what you got till it's gone
Oh now you're gone

Ripped jeans
Tryin'a look like all the girls in magazines
Frail promises
I thought we'd last forever, always like this
Dancing to our favourite Arctic Monkeys tune
Drink the sweetest wine, in the afternoons
Now I know it's true

But you don't know what you got till it's gone
When it's blurry, and fades away
You're not longing for the burning sun
Till you're standing in the pouring rain
I'm wishing you could hold me tonight, hold me tonight
'Cause you don't know what you got till it's gone
Oh now you've gone

Now you've gone, oh now you've gone
Now you've gone, oh now you've gone

If I close my eyes, you're still there
Smoking cigarettes
With your untied All Stars
Suddenly I'm seventeen again

But you don't know what you got till it's gone
When it's blurry, and fades away
You're not longing for the burning sun
Till you're standing in the pouring rain
I'm wishing you could hold me tonight, hold me tonight

Now you've gone, oh now you've gone
Now you've gone, oh now you've gone
