Jake Weisman - I'll Remember 17 Lyrics

I still remember being 17, yeah. how could I forget it now?
Through all the times that we would pretend, yeah
Thought it's too late for happy endings now

Playing roller hockey on my street, yeah, on the culdesac in my hometown
My best friends they lived right up the street, yeah
Feel like they all just out to get me now

And I still remember my first kiss, yeah
I got friends who starting families now
Before I used to hit the weed, and school was all I ever cared about

I think my younger self would hate me, tell him I've been goin through it lately
Walked into the venue only silence till they pay me
Man I think I'm goin crazy, yeah

I still remember being 17, it was almost eighty months ago
Then my classmates turn to memories, remember English class with Mrs. Powell

Wayne came out with the Carter III, we used to bump that in the parking lot
Picked up guitar when I was just thirteen, yeah
Ten years later, hope they see me now

As far as members of my family, yeah
They either love me or they hate me now
My life is straight out of a movie scene, yeah
I hope they miss me when I'm not around

Yearbook photos and the trophies
I would dream 'bout touring off this music, only hoping
You went off to college and since then we haven't spoken
I heard you got a man you'll prolly marry now

But I still remember 17
Really ain't too much that's differnt now
No matter how much I try to forget, yeah
Imma always try to make ya smile

You live your like it was all a race, yeah
Then you wonder how it all turns out
It feels like something's always in the way, yeah
You learn that winnings not the only route

I fell for plenty girls back in the day, yeah
But I never told 'em how I felt
I told myself that I would play it safe, yeah
I really only ever hurt myself

There is a window of time
Realized that I lost my mind
Soon we'll be 30 with kids
Feel like I don't have much time, I am not ready to die yet

I still remember being 17
Wasn't a person who could talk me down
Six years later now I'm 23, yeah
Though deep inside I still feel like a child

But I would do it all, do it all again
Do it all, do it all again
Do it all, do it all again right now
