Lizzy Hilliard - Seventeen Lyrics

A lot of things in life you can
Do over again
If you skip a beat
You might repeat
Your wedding or your last swim meet

Some things though are not redone
For everyone
Each year anew
That's just for you
Your birthday or your first debut

All of this is just to ask
Should I put on a face mask
Am I looking as I should
Would I change me if I could
All of this is just to say
Do I weigh okay today
Do I need more in my cup
Am I done with growing up
I'm only gonna be seventeen right now, and I don't wanna mess things up

What if I didn't brush my hair
Will it even care
'Cause it might decide
That it wants to hide
Each decision is livin' the do or died

Every time you blink your eyes
The great surprise
Is you miss what might
Mean the world tonight
So it's better if you put up a good fight

All of this is just to ask
Should I put on a face mask
Am I looking as I should
Would I change me if I could
All of this is just to say
Do I weigh okay today
Do I need more in my cup
Am I done with growing up
I'm only gonna be seventeen right now, and I don't wanna mess things up

I know it's not my place to say
But I don't like the risk in my way
Each moment is my last chance
To build my life, build each romance
And I know it's not terrible
These moments start with something small
But all the small can grow so tall
What if I don't like the end at all

Each day is one step at a time
A beat and a rhyme
When you watch a play
You sing all day
But it's not the same when you live that way

All of this is just to ask
Should I put on a face mask
Am I looking as I should
Would I change me if I could
All of this is just to say
Do I weigh okay today
Do I need more in my cup
Am I done with growing up
I'm only gonna be seventeen right now, and I don't wanna mess things up

All of this is just to ask
Should I put on a face mask
Am I looking as I should
Would I change me if I could
All of this is just to say
Do I weigh okay today
Do I need more in my cup
Am I done with growing up
I'm only gonna be seventeen right now, and I don't wanna mess things up
And I don't wanna mess things up
And I don't wanna mess things up
