[Verse]
Seventeen felt like forever
Running wild through stormy weather
Rules were whispers I couldn’t hear
Chasing smoke under streetlight shadows
Skipping stones where the river flows
The edge was close but never near
[Prechorus]
Couldn’t break me
Couldn’t shake me
Thought the world would never wake me
[Chorus]
I wanna go back
Back to seventeen
When the nights were long
And the air was clean
I wanna go back
Back to reckless dreams
Where nothing hurt
And I was free
[Verse 2]
School bells rang but we weren’t listenin’
Lit the sky with the sparks we’d christen
The wind carried our secrets away
Laughter echoed in the alleys of dawn
Every wrong felt like a perfect song
The fire burned
We danced in its sway
