Do I miss you? Or do I miss the feeling? Of wanting someone so badly that it almost stopped from breathing At every stop light I've got face it When you said: I'll race you home I didn't know all the things I'd be chasing And it's so unfair It's so masochistic How you're always there But I can't ever relive it Nothing will ever be Simple like seventeen And the way that you loved me with no composure And nothing will ever hurt like Being a lesson learned And thinking it could've worked If we were older But, nothing will ever be Simple like seventeen I spent ten months With another person (With another person) But somehow it just pushed the memory Of you right back up to the surface And it's so unfair (it's so unfair) It's so masochistic How I'll always care But I can't ever relive it 'Cause, nothing will ever be Simple like seventeen And the way that you loved me with no composure And nothing will ever hurt like Being a lesson learned And thinking it could've worked If we were older Uh uh uh uh (if we were) Uh uh uh uh (if we were) Uh uh uh uh (if we were) Maybe I just have some growing up to do But maybe you were made for me to hold on to So maybe you can stay but I still gotta Make some room from something new Even though it's true Nothing will ever be Simple like seventeen And the way that you loved me with no composure And nothing will ever hurt like Being a lesson learned And thinking it could it worked If we were older But nothing will ever be Simple like seventeen
