17 Again - Tiffany Houghton

I was 17 and he was too,

the best of friends we made it through together,

whatever came our way.

He saw me cry but he made me laugh.

Probably did things we shouldn’t have,

but I’d never take them back.

Sitting here missin' him, wondering how he’s been

since then

Sometimes he’ll cross my mind, takes me back to that time

And I wonder if,

What if we kept our promises?

What if we never did forget?

What if we meant all the beautiful things we said?

What if he made me, made me stay?

And he was still mine today

What if we could, forgive and rebegin

and be 17 again

ohh

We’d sit by the fire and kiss too long,

then he’d play guitar and I’d sing along.

I swear the sound was magic to me

And I didn’t care if we were all we had

Say «I love you» with the squeeze of my hand

Back before, growing up began

And now I sit here missing him, wondering how he’s been

since then

Sometimes he’ll cross my mind, takes me back to that time

And I wonder if,

What if we kept our promises?

What if we never did forget?

What if we meant all the beautiful things we said?

What if he made me, made me stay?

And he was still mine today

What if we could, forgive and rebegin

and be 17 again

woah,

I’ve never hurt and I’ve never loved again like that

If the first real love you have, is actually the last

then I can’t talk about us

What if we kept our promises?

What if we never did forget?

What if we meant all the beautiful things we said?

What if he made me, made me stay?

And he was still mine today

What if we could, forgive and rebegin

and be 17 again

oh, ooh
