Edge of Seventeen Lyrics

Just like a white winged dove sings a song sounds like she's singing,
Ooo, ooo, ooo
Just like a white winged dove sings a song sounds like she's singing
Ooo, baby ooo, said ooo

And the days go by like a strand in the wind in a web
That is my own I begin again
Said to my friend baby, nothing else mattered
Well he was no more that 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 a white winged dove sings a song sounds like she's singing
Ooo, baby ooo, said ooo
Just like a white winged dove sings a song sounds like she's singing
Ooo, baby ooo, said ooo

I went today maybe I will go again tomorrow
Yeah, yeah and the music there it was hautingly, familiar
And I see you doing what I try to do for me
With the words from a poet and the voice from a choir
And a melody... nothing else mattered

Just like a white winged dove sings a song sounds like she's singing
Ooo, baby ooo, said ooo
Just like a white winged dove sings a song sounds like she's singing
Ooo, baby ooo, said ooo

The clouds never expect it, when it rains but the sea changes colours
But the sea does not change
And so will the slow, graceful flow of age
I went forth, with an age old desire
To please on the edge of seventeen

Just like a white winged dove sings a song sounds like she's singing
Ooo, baby ooo, said ooo
Just like a white winged dove sings a song sounds like she's singing
Ooo, baby ooo, said ooo

( repeat )
