Lyrics of Edge of Seventeen - Live From Soundstage Non-Album Track by Stevie Nicks

chorus

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, ooh, ooh"
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, ooh, ooh"

verse

And the days go by like a strand in the wind
In the web that is my own, I begin again
Said to my friend (everything's right)
"Baby, you know nothin' else matters"

verse

He was no more than a baby then
Well, well, he seemed broken-hearted
It was something within him

verse

Ooh, but the moment that I first laid
Eyes on him, all alone (on the edge of)
Somewhere out on the edge of seventeen

chorus

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, ooh, ooh"
But just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, ooh, ooh"

verse

I went today
Maybe I will go again tomorrow
Well, well, music there it was hauntingly familiar

verse

And I see you doing what I try to do for me
With the words from a poet and the voice from a choir
And a melody, nothing else mattered

chorus

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, ooh, ooh"
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' to ya
"Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"

verse

Well, the clouds never expect it when it rains
But the sea changes colors, but the sea
Does not change, the sea does not change, it does not change
Does it?

bridge

So with the slow, graceful flow of age
I went forth with an age-old desire to please
On the edge of seventeen
Out on the edge

chorus

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, ooh, ooh"
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' to ya
"Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"

verse

Well, then suddenly there was no one
Left standing in the hall
Well, well, in a flood of tears that
No one really ever heard fall at all

verse

I went searchin' for an answer
Up the stairs and down the hall
But I could not to find an answer, but I could hear the call of a night bird
Singing, "Come away, come now" (come away, come away)

chorus

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' to ya
"Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"

verse

Well, I hear you in the morning (I hear you in the morning)
Baby, I hear you at nightfall (but I hear you at nightfall)
Sometime to be near you
Is to be unable to hear you
My love
I'm a few years older than you are
(Baby, I'm a few years older than you)

chorus

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' to ya
"Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"

bridge

I hear the call of the night bird
I hear the call of the night bird
I still hear the call of the night bird, oh-oh, it says
(I hear the call of the night bird) "Look away, come away, drive away
Come edge below, oh yeah"

verse

She said, "Follow my dreams, what's the matter now?
Baby, I think about you"
Oh yeah, she said, "Follow my dreams, what's the matter now?
Baby, I think about you"

hook

She said, "I know what it sounds like
I know what it sounds like
I know what it sounds like
It sounds like you"

outro

I know what it sounds like
I know what it sounds like
I know
What it sounds like
