Seventeen
Seventeen going on 35
Teenage years kissed me goodbye
But I never knew them at all
Seventeen knowing every line
Work hard, smile it'll all be fine
But they couldn't be more wrong
All the nights I laid and cried
Every cliche memorized
I gave it all for everything I have
Did I go and waste my years
Was it worth a thousand tears
It's been a while since I heard my own laugh
I wanna sleep in just this once
I wanna dye my hair for fun
I wanna fall in love over & over again
I wanna dance and make a scene
I wanna be homecoming queen
I wanna help myself hold onto
Seventeen
Played all of my poker chips
I knew the chance, I took a risk
Cause I'm okay with betting all on me
They say the house will always win
But they don't know what's in my hand
I'll throw it down for everyone to see
All the nights I've laid and cried
Every cliche memorized
I gave it all for everything I have
Did I go and waste my years
Was it worth a thousand tears
It's been a while since I heard my own laugh
I wanna sleep in just this once
I wanna dye my hair for fun
I wanna fall in love over & over again
I wanna dance and make a scene
I wanna be homecoming queen
I wanna help myself hold onto 17
If it falls apart
Would it all be worth the heartache
Cause time won't stop
Ohhh
If it falls apart
Then what will I be left with
Will I regret my life
I'm gonna sleep in just this once
I'm gonna dye my hair for fun
I'm gonna fall in love over & over again
I'm gonna dance and make a scene
I'm gonna be homecoming queen
I'm gonna help myself hold onto 17
I'm gonna sleep in just this once
I'm gonna dye my hair for fun
Gonna fall in love over n over again
I'm gonna dance and make a scene
Finally be homecoming queen
I'm gonna help myself hold onto 17
Teenage years kissed me goodbye
But I never knew them at all
Seventeen knowing every line
Work hard, smile it'll all be fine
But they couldn't be more wrong
All the nights I laid and cried
Every cliche memorized
I gave it all for everything I have
Did I go and waste my years
Was it worth a thousand tears
It's been a while since I heard my own laugh
I wanna sleep in just this once
I wanna dye my hair for fun
I wanna fall in love over & over again
I wanna dance and make a scene
I wanna be homecoming queen
I wanna help myself hold onto
Seventeen
Played all of my poker chips
I knew the chance, I took a risk
Cause I'm okay with betting all on me
They say the house will always win
But they don't know what's in my hand
I'll throw it down for everyone to see
All the nights I've laid and cried
Every cliche memorized
I gave it all for everything I have
Did I go and waste my years
Was it worth a thousand tears
It's been a while since I heard my own laugh
I wanna sleep in just this once
I wanna dye my hair for fun
I wanna fall in love over & over again
I wanna dance and make a scene
I wanna be homecoming queen
I wanna help myself hold onto 17
If it falls apart
Would it all be worth the heartache
Cause time won't stop
Ohhh
If it falls apart
Then what will I be left with
Will I regret my life
I'm gonna sleep in just this once
I'm gonna dye my hair for fun
I'm gonna fall in love over & over again
I'm gonna dance and make a scene
I'm gonna be homecoming queen
I'm gonna help myself hold onto 17
I'm gonna sleep in just this once
I'm gonna dye my hair for fun
Gonna fall in love over n over again
I'm gonna dance and make a scene
Finally be homecoming queen
I'm gonna help myself hold onto 17
