Seventeen when I first saw her
Fell in love so that fast that summer
Playing in the pouring rain
Staying up 'til morning came
and I never felt that way before
Yeah there's nothing in this world I wanted more
And then love came in
And time flew by
We were so free
We had it all we gave so much
But still we couldn't see
Convinced ourselves forever was for their dream
How could we have known
We were only seventeen
Six years later on one knee
Looking at her looking back at me
She could hardly answer
As tears of joy fell down her cheek
2 am she calls her friends
But she didn't know it was the beginning of the end
The end
And then love came in
And time flew by
We were so free
We had it all we gave so much
But still we couldn't see
Convinced ourselves forever was for their dream
How could we have known
We were only twenty-three
Now she's got a dress hanging on her doorframe
I got a ring sitting on my dresser
I don't know what went wrong
I don't know how I lost her
She says she needs to find herself
Forced me to go and raise some hell
But all I want is her
But all I can do is just remember
And then love came in
And time flew by
We were so free
We had it all we gave so much
But still we couldn't see
Convinced ourselves forever was for their dream
How could we have known ohhh
How could we have known
We were only seventeen
Only seveteen
