Edge Of Seventeen

And the days go by
Like a strand in the wind
In the web that is my own
I begin again
Said to my friend
'Cause nothin' else mattered

But the moment
That I first laid
Eyes on him
All alone on the edge of
Seventeen

And just like the one winged dove.
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh, said ooh
Just like the one winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh, said ooh

Well I went today, maybe I will go again
Tomorrow
Yeah, Yeah...
Well the music there well it was hauntingly
Familiar

And I see you doing
What I tried to do for me
With the words from a poet
And a voice from a choir
And a melody
'Cause nothing else mattered

Just like the one winged dove.
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh, said ooh
Just like the one winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh, said ooh

Well I hear you
(If I hear you)
In the morning
(In the morning)
And I hear you
(And I hear you)
At nightfall
And sometimes to be near you
Is to be unable my love
I'm a few years older than you
My love

And just like the one winged dove.
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh, said ooh
Just like the one winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh, ooh, ooh

All alone on the edge of seventeen
All alone on the edge of seventeen
All alone on the edge of seventeen
All alone on the edge of seventeen
