17 Lyrics

I was only 17 when he

 Came around and passed my way

 He was the finest thing I'd ever seen

 And his eyes were green

 Him and the boys played basketball

 While I was chillin at the park

 He had a smile that could shine a light

 On your darkest days

 He came up to me and said

 Excuse me what's your name

 I was just wondering if you would like 2 get away

 

 [Chorus]

 

 Do you remember me?

 At the age of 17

 You fell in love with me

 But it was never ever meant to be

 

 Later on as we got to know each other

 I just wanted this day to last forever

 But as I learned more bout him

 I wondered if I'd ever see him again

 There was something bout the way he made me feel

 It felt as though the whole world were standing still

 And when we talked I could see 

 He was the perfect man for me

 When he took me home that night

 I knew that I was gone

 He walked me to my door

 And that's when I started to write this song

 

 [Chorus]

 

 Do you remember me?

 At the age of 17

 You fell in love with me

 But it was never ever meant to be

 

 Do you remember me?

 I was only 17

 Lived my life so wild and free

 But it was never ever meant to be

 

 I fell in love the moment I laid my eyes on him

 But that's just the problem

 Cuz he was already in a relationship

 He said he wasn't happy

 It wasn't working 

 And I reminded him of the way that she used to be

 He said he couldn't stay and that was just the way

 At the sweet age of 17

 

 [Chorus]
