Seventeen

We were barely allowed to drive alone Screwed if I didn't have her home by midnight Macklemore on the radio Didn't know what we didn't know So wide-eyed Parked it dark end of a dirt lot Back seat lip lock with our shirts off So sure that we'd never get caught Invincible and fearless Beautiful and bold Nervous and excited Never getting old No one else existed Only her and me Pretending we were free What a thrill to be Seventeen A bright light and a hard knock On a window full of white fog With 10:15 on the dash clock Lucky we got a nice cop Just told us kids to get lost Tore out of there with our shirts on backwards New delinquents that were Invincible and fearless Beautiful and bold Nervous and excited Never getting old No one else existed Only her and me Pretending we were free What a thrill to be Seventeen She's out somewhere on the West Coast Working some job only God knows But when she thinks of me I hope She thinks about that bliss How it felt to be Invincible and fearless Beautiful and bold Nervous and excited Never getting old No one else existed Only her and me Pretending we were free What a thrill to be Seventeen Seventeen When no one else existed Only her and me Pretending we were free What a thrill to be Seventeen
