[Verse 1]
I loved a boy when I was seventeen
Had he loved me back, things might have worked out differently
[Pre-Chorus 1]
‘Cause I know, things go
Up in smoke before you knew they were in flames
[Chorus]
I see me, I see you
I see all that we’ve been through
I see us in the night-time sky with the stars so bright
I see love, I feel the rush
I know the way we could have touched
I see me, at seventeen I was a dreamer
[Post-Chorus]
Shine on me, shine on me
Sweet seventeen
[Verse 2]
Intoxicated by your velvet touch
Your honest words, your faith in love
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I know, things go
Swept away before you felt a gust of wind
[Chorus]
I see me, I see you
I see all that we’ve been through
I see us in the night-time sky with the stars so bright
I see love, I feel the rush
I know the way we could have touched
I see me, at seventeen I was a dreamer
[Post-Chorus]
Shine on me, shine on me
Sweet seventeen
[Bridge]
Sweet seventeen
Bring me, bring me to my knees
[Chorus]
I see me, I see you
I see all that we’ve been through
I see us in the night-time sky with the stars so bright
I see love, I feel the rush
I know the way we could have touched
I see me, at seventeen I was a dreamer
[Outro]
So shine on me
Shine on me, shine on me
Sweet seventeen
