Edward Denholm - Seventeen Lyrics

The days grew shorter when you were around
This light takes me back to those autumn clouds
Theres a whistle in the wind as i pack into my car
Reminds me of a feeling

And oh
I'm running now
Running now
Running back from the old times that keep on chasing me
Your wild eyes which used to make me feel
Seventeen years old

Now I wake up feeling cold
And everything just freezes
Since I have no new reasons
To call you up again

The nights draw closed like a book
With the final chapter heading for disaster
A solstice marks the turning of a page
To gear up for a happy ever after

But oh

I'm running now
Running now
Running back from the old times that keep on chasing me
Your wild eyes which used to make me feel
Seventeen years old
Now i wake up feeling cold

I always thought it funny how we spent our days
Picking up the pieces from the games we used to play
I kept on looking at the grass
It was so much greener when you came
Back round but maybe
The flowers bloomed from all the raining
And our love
Our time
Has grown green
In my mind
