Seventeen

There's gold in the sky
I wish we could fly
But it's a long way, long ways down
The seasons changing
Imagination
Lost inside a crowd

So promise me
You'll always keep
Me like a melody
Remember me
When we're seventy
Like we were seventeen

It's funny how time changes
For better or worse it's strange and amazing
But you always wear your heartbeat on your sleeve
Thinking back on the day when
A bond became destiny destined for greatness
We're growing opposite the falling leaves

So promise me
You'll always keep
Me like a melody
Remember me
When we're seventy
Like we were seventeen

And I'll always hold on to seventeen

Promise me honestly
You'll always talk to me
Autumn leaves falling
But fall don't mean falling but following
Constantly calling
The thought of you leaving's a hard pill to swallow
Please see me tomorrow
Or watch as I drown in my sorrow
I'm sorry, I'm selfish
A drama queen
Probably partially cause of this song though
Call me Apollo
I don't mean add to the stress
But I had to get this off my chest
I'm a mess when I'm alone
And being with you in a room makes me calm and collected
So safe and connected contented and mended
And I'm feeling I can breathe again

Oh it's funny how the time it changes
For the better or the worse, girl (Oh I'm feeling I can breathe)
Oh we're destiny destined for greatness
For the better or the worse, girl
For the better or the worse, girl

Remember me
When we're seventy
Like we're seventeen
