When I saw you
Straighten your hair
With your finger
It felt like
I knew that
Gesture
From somewhere
But I couldn't remember where
I couldn't remember
The torn picture
And then
Seventeen
Seventeen
I remembered you
Seventeen
Seventeen
Your warped image
It felt like
I knew
That vacant
Stare
From
Somewhere
I saw it somewhere
I'm sure
A long time
Ago
But I couldn't remember
What you looked like
At that time
I mean
Seventeen
Seventeen
I remember you
Seventeen
Seventeen
Your warped image
I didn't want
To meet you ever again
The way you
Straightened your hair
With your finger
And the way
You left me
Seventeen
Seventeen
I remember you
Seventeen
Seventeen
Your warped image
Seventeen
Sweet seventeen...
