Seventeen we were too young
To be thinking about the future
To be worried about the consequence of fun. . .
Its just fun
Yeah we grew up oh so fast
Now were longing for the innocence
We swore ourselves would never pass
But it has passed
Chorus:
Wont you listen to the words Im speaking
Wont you listen to the words Im speaking
Time could take this pain away and save us
If we learn to trust again
Now Im waking with the dawn
And theres no rest with the hollowness
thats moved into my soul since youve been gone
Where have you gone
Ive got nothing left to give
Ive given all my gifts to you
Now Ive just got the bags from where Ive been
Where have I been
Chorus
So sorry they hurt us, so sorry they lied
So sorry they left us, so sorry we died inside
But Im glad to be with you, Im glad we survived
And well be alright if we let it ride and just let it shine tonight
