Life cover
09. Forever 17
Album: Life
Artist: ZOEgirl
         
 

Never thought it would be me
Living in a shattered dream
How could this be
The end for me?
What I wouldn't give to have
A life to live, a day to plan...
Instead I'll be forever seventeen

I coulda lived out every dream
I coulda been most anything

CHORUS
Can someone wake me up?
I haven't lived yet
I'm only seventeen
God, did you forget
I'm just a baby?
And I don't wanna be...
Forever seventeen

I'll never have a bed to make,
A test to take,
A summer day
I'll always be forever seventeen
I could've had a family
How close, it worked out differently
Instead I'll be forever seventeen

Could I have just one more day
A chance to learn from my mistakes?

CHORUS

In a matter of a moment,
Life fell before my eyes
Now I'm lookin' at the meaning of
The miracle of life
Where were we going
Without evening knowing
The answer deep inside

Forever seventeen...

So, don't give up
You haven't lived yet
You're only seventeen
And God did not forget
You're just a baby
