Seventeen Lyrics by Abbe May

Fruit

0

[Verse 1]
I remember when I was seventeen
I didn’t care for anything but me
I was lying to my parents nearly all the time
Sneaking through a bedroom window most nights
Before I knew it I was twenty one
I got a bad tattoo, but so did everyone
I broke a heart and only missed it when it was gone
I only missed you when you were gone
[Chorus]
I love you
Even though it kills me to
[Verse 2]
I spiraled into whiskey, weed, and life rewinds
I spent my nights singing with the ghost of Patsy Cline
By the time I turned 28 I learned how easily lust can turn to hate
Responsibility cloaked my soul
Saturn’s long black veil from my head to toe
I said goodbye to my youth
As my inability for sobriety
Become the only thing that gave me notoriety
[Chorus]
I love you
Even though it kills me to
I love you
I love you
I love you, love you, love you
I love you
I love you
I love you, love you, love you
[Verse 3]
Something happened to me when you were born
A kind of lightning strike where I was flowed
I was stuck by how small you were
And somehow that made me even smaller
In this universe inside some kind of multiverse
Chorus – verse, chorus - verse
It’s just a song but it's sung from the heart of a firebird
That will phoenix ever more
[Chorus]
I love you
I love you
I love you, love you, love you, love you, love you
I love you
I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you
