Seventeen when I first saw you faded
All alone in your brand-new Mercedes
Drop-top staring at a blue sensation
Pulled aside and I gave you my patience
You asked, what you want? (What you want?)
I wanna' love (You wanna' love)
Tellin' me (I'm tellin' you)
To take it on (To take it on)
I know you (I know you)
Could be the one (Could be the one)
But you can't (But I can't)
Be someone (Be no one)
We're all alone someday
That's what you told me
The stars will lead our way
Don't you know
She said, you
I don't know what to do
I said
Don't fall in love with me
I'll break your heart
She said, all she wants from me
Is to mend my scars
But did you already know
That way down the farther you go
Will lead to the fall of it all?
She said
I don't know where things could possibly go wrong
If we just stick to the beat of this song
I'm sure it'll lead us somewhere we belong
Then I told you my secret
You promised to keep it
But now you left me wondering, why'd I run off?
That brand new feeling
The life we were fiending
The stuff we were dreaming of would finally come true
Seventeen when I first saw you faded
All alone in your brand-new Mercedes
Drop-top staring at a blue sensation
Pulled aside and I gave you my patience
You asked, what you want? (What you want?)
I wanna' love (You wanna' love)
Tellin' me (I'm tellin' you)
To take it on (To take it on)
I know you (I know you)
Could be the one (Could be the one)
But you can't (But I can't)
Be someone (Be no one)
Seventeen when I first saw you faded
Drop-top staring at a blue sensation
You asked, what you want? (What you want?)
I wanna' love (You wanna' love)
Tellin' me (I'm tellin' you)
To take it on (To take it on)
I know you (I know you)
Could be the one (Could be the one)
But you can't (But I can't)
Be someone (Be no one)
