Seventeen, it all began
Moving out without a plan, just
Chasing my crazy dreams
Of getting so far from seventeen
Best friends and Friday nights
We could do no wrong; it felt so right
Now we're watching our lives roll by
Wishing we could try one more time
But I'm so far from seventeen
So far from seventeen
Life's bitter but first it's sweet
I'm getting so far from seventeen
I think about the times I could do no wrong
When I learned all the words to every song;
So I could sing along
When I was dreaming of a better life
In the stars above, the L.A. lights,
But I'm so far from seventeen
So far from seventeen
Life's bitter but first it's sweet
I'm getting so far from seventeen
I think about the day we'll all be dead and gone
But we're all living now, and we only get one chance
(Only get one chance)
I said we only get one chance to sing along
Nanana-nananana
Come together now!
Nanananananana
We only get chance to sing along
Nanananananana
I'm getting so far from seventeen
Singin', nanana-nananana
Nanananananana
All together now!
Life's bitter, but it's so sweet
Now that I'm so far from seventeen
