Water running down the corners of her eyes Madness springing from the center of her mind She's dancing - she can do the moves like anyone Pretending she can catch the moment when it's gone And then she turns the other way And says there's nothing left to say But I want her to understand now She's not the one who's in command now And what does she mean... I have never been seventeen? Love me - come and tell me I'm the only one Holde me - come and tell me I'm the lucky one I want you to show me - show me there's a reason to believe You know me - All I have is all I'll ever need But then you turn the other way And say there's nothing left to say Well I want you to understand now You're not the one who's in demand now And what do you mean... I have never been seventeen?
