Lyrics of Seventeen by Sharon Van Etten
verse
I know what you wanna say
verse
I think that you're all the same
verse
Constantly being led astray
verse
He's thinking of something you don't
verse
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
verse
Down beneath the ashes and the stone
verse
Sure of what I've lived and have known
verse
I see you so uncomfortably alone
verse
I wish I could show you how much you've grown
verse
Downtown harks back
verse
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's my shadow?
verse
I know what you're gonna be
verse
I know that you're gonna be
verse
You're crumbling up just to see
verse
Afraid that you'll be just like me
verse
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
verse
But you're just seventeen
So much like me
You're just seventeen
You're just seventeen
Seventeen
Writer(s): Sharon Van Etten, Kate Davis
