together we will rule forever

seventeen
on a boat down a Venice street
theres a lot that i want to keep with me

seventeen
all i know is the in between lately
until you met with me

its a long way home, you know
when youre seventeen, its the only road we can go

seventeen
everything else is dead to me
i dont care if i ever see em again

seventeen,
yes i promise to set you free
hold your heart in my arms and tightly

its a lonely night every night
but when youre seventeen and you hold me
i could quit crying for a whole lifetime

seventeen
now ive seen all there is to see
and theres nothing wonderful as you with me

seventeen,
ill protect you as long as i breathe
no else can touch you its only me

its a sad, mad world, we know
but when youre seventeen, i pretend were free
and we dont have to think of no one else

seventeen
now ive been everywhere i could be
and theres nowhere pretty as seventeen

seventeen
now ive been with you every life
and theres no one else thats so heavenly

seventeen, now ive seen all there is to see
seventeen, now ive been everywhere to be
and, believe me, seventeen
i will hide you under my wing
seventeen, i would die for you if you only ask me
