Seventeen
HeathersFine!
We’re damaged
Really damaged
But that does not make us wise
We’re not special, we’re not different
We don’t choose who lives or dies
Let’s be normal, see bad movies
Sneak a beer and watch tv
We’ll bake brownies or go bowling
Don’t you want a life with me?
Can’t we be seventeen?
That’s all I want to do
If you could let me in
I could be good with you
People hurt us
[J.D.]
Or they vanish
[VERONICA]
And you’re right, that really blows
But we let go
[J.D.]
Take a deep breath
[VERONICA]
Then go buy some summer clothes
We'll go camping
[J.D.]
Play some poker
[VERONICA]
And we’ll eat some chili fries
Maybe prom night
[J.D.]
Maybe dancing
[VERONICA]
Don't stop looking in my eyes
[J.D.]
Your eyes
[VERONICA]
Can't we be seventeen
Is that so hard to do?
[BOTH]
If you could let me in
I could be good with you
Let us be seventeen
If we still got the right
[VERONICA]
So what’s it gonna be?
I wanna be with you
[J.D.]
I wanna be with you
[VERONICA]
Wanna be with you
[BOTH]
Tonight
[VERONICA]
Yeah we’re damaged
[J.D.]
Badly damaged
[BOTH]
But your love’s too good to lose
[VERONICA]
Hold me tighter
[J.D.]
Even closer
[VERONICA]
I’ll stay if I’m what you choose
[J.D.]
Can we be seventeen?
[VERONICA]
If I am what you choose
[J.D.]
If we've still got the right
[VERONICA]
‘Cause you’re the one I choose
[J.D.]
You’re the one I choose
[BOTH]
You’re the one I choose
