A Promise At Seventeen

by brie kelly wise   Jan 13, 2008


When we were young
We pictured a world where a second chance was just another day
But in reality heaven was just one mistake away
We were wise beyond our years
But our eyes told everything differently here
Just like the trail of blood we followed to get back home
Clever minded, built to last, we withstood each fear, even if we stood alone
We had wits, we had looks and we had each other's hands
But most of all we had each other, and here we stand
But it's all changed now, because we can't be seventeen forever like we promised
But we'll always be young together like we promised when we were seventeen
