Forever 17 - Franky Perez

I remember being seventeen years old

Barreling down Blue Diamond Road

If we get there before my parents get home

I could sneak you in

We made it just in time

Snuck in my room

Turned out the lights

We sat in silence for what seemed all night

Till the coast was clear

Forever Seventeen

Remember remember

When a kiss meant everything

Remember remember

Forever Seventeen

What times those were

Forever Seventeen

She was nervous for what it was worth

I said she was the closest thing to heaven on earth

With that she stood up, took off her shirt

Gave me her heart

I remember sitting on the edge of my bed

It felt like I was watching an angel undress

Two young lovers in over their heads

Under the sheets

Forever Seventeen

Remember remember

When a kiss meant everything

Remember remember

Forever Seventeen

What times those were

Forever Seventeen

The night behind us

The sun on her heads

I drove her home in my Dad’s Oldsmobile

One hand in hers the other on the wheel

The pedal on the floor

That morning a promise was made

We’ll tie the knot as soon as we come of age

We’ll rent a chapel, vows will be exchanged

I’ll make you my wife

Forever Seventeen

Remember remember

When a kiss meant everything

Remember remember

Forever Seventeen

What times those were

Forever Seventeen
