Only Seventeen

Only Seventeen

Where
Where do we go from here
I've had you more apart
than I've ever had you near

Where
Where'd it disappear
The love we had
were only dreams
drowning in my tears

She said "But I'm only seventeen.
I'm lonely but I'm good.
I'm the only girl you
ever needed,
but you've never understood"

Now why
Why did I have to cry
I should've spoken words
rather than a sigh

When
did it all end
The love we had
that's gone
had never truly been

She said "But I'm only seventeen.
I'm lonely but I'm good.
I'm the only girl you
ever needed,
but you've never understood"

Now alone in jealousy
in a chance we never stood,
She's all I had a hold of
and all I ever would

And while talkin' to myself
in the loneliness I stood
I loved her more than anyone
thought I ever should

She said "But I'm only seventeen.
I'm lonely but I'm good.
I want you here far more
than I know I ever should"

And while crying to herself,
she's never understood
She says she never will,
but eventually she would

And what she said to me
in the hallway that we stood
hurt me more than words
ever truly could

She said "But I'm only seventeen.
I'm lonely but I'm good.
I'm the only girl you
ever needed,
but you've never understood"

I said "But you're only seventeen
I couldn't love you if I could"
All the while... All the while,
I knew I never would
