17 lyrics

Some people tell me that your not my kind
And I'd believe them but I can't get you off of my mind
Some people tell me that I should stay away
Maybe I will, some other day

'Cause it feels right
you know it feels good
and i dont always do what i should
and I know what makes me happy
And in my heart you are it exactly

I don't wanna do right
I just want you tonight not just only in my dreams
Save my best behavior for a little later cause I'm only 17
I think I've made my mind up I've got time to grow up
Face responsilbilty
Livin in the moment keepin my heart open
cuz I'm only 17

I'll learn my leasons and I'll make mistakes
And if I get burned Well it'll only be my heart to break
It isn't easy hearing what they say
Sometimes you've got to take a leap of faith

Cause it feels right and it feels good
And I'm not gonna do something stupid
Just this once I wanna feel like
I can do what I want when I hold tight

I don't wanna do right
I just want you tonight not just only in my dreams
Save my best behavior for a little later cause I'm only 17
I think I've made my mind up I've got time to grow up
Face responsilbilty
Livin in the moment keepin my heart open
Oh I'm only 17

Anyone who's ever been in love
Has got to know what it means
to have a dream and no one can say anything
To change my mind, no not this time
repeat chorus 2x
i won't grow up...to face my responsibility
holdin, open...
cuz im only 17...
only 17...
only 17
