Edge Of Seventeen Lyrics

Just like the white winged dove

Sings a song, sounds like she's singing

Ooh, ooh, ooh

And the days go by, like a strand in the wind

In the web that is my own, I begin again

Said to my friend

Nothin' else mattered

Oh, he was no more than a baby then

Well he seemed broken-hearted

Something within him

But the moment that I first laid

Eyes on him

All alone on the edge of

Seventeen

Just like the white winged dove

Sings a song, sounds like she's singing

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Just like the white winged dove

Sings a song, sounds like she's singing

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Well, I went today

Maybe I will go again tomorrow

(Tomorrow)

Yeah yeah, well, the music there

Well, it was hauntingly familiar

Well, I see you doing what I try to do for me

With the words from a poet and a voice from a choir

And a melody,

And nothing else mattered

Just like the white winged dove

Sings a song, sounds like she's singing

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Just like the white winged dove

Sings a song, sounds like she's singing

Ooh, ooh, ooh

The clouds never expect it when it rains

But the sea changes colours

But the sea does not change

So with the slow, graceful flow of age

I went forth with an age-old desire to be

On the edge of

On the edge of

Seventeen

Just like the white winged dove

Sings a song, sounds like she's singing

Ooh, ooh, ooh (just like the white winged dove)

Just like the white winged dove

Sings a song, sounds like she's singing

Ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh

Just like the white winged dove

Sings a song, sounds like she's singing (sounds like she's singing)

Ooh, ooh, ooh (yeah)

Just like the white winged dove

Sings a song, sounds like she's singing

Ooh, ooh, ooh
