Seventeen - Sharon Van Etten

Lyrics by：Sharon Van Etten

Composed by：Sam Cohen/Sharon Van Etten

Produced by：John Congleton

I know what you wanna say

I think that you're all the same

Constantly being led astray

He's thinking of something you don't

Downtown harks back

Halfway up the street

I used to be free

I used to be seventeen

Follow my shadow

Around your corner

I used to be seventeen

Now you're just like me

Down beneath the ashes and the stone

Sure of what I've lived and have known

I see you so uncomfortably alone

I wish I could show you how much you've grown

Downtown harks back

I used to be on this street

I used to be seventeen

I used to be seventeen

Now you're half shy

Hanging on my block

Sun coming up

Who is my shadow

I know what you're gonna be

I know that you're gonna be

You're crumbling up just to see

Afraid you'll be just like me

Downtown harks back

Halfway through this life

I used to feel free

Was it just a dream

Now you're half shy

Think you're so carefree

But you're just seventeen

So much like me

And you're just seventeen

You're just seventeen
