Jonas — Edge of Seventeen lyrics

Lyrics

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she’s singing,
Who, who, who
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she’s singing
Oh baby oh said oh 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, baby
Nothin' else mattered
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
I went today, maybe I will go again,
Tomorrow
And the music there it was hauntingly,
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
The clouds, never expect it,
When it rains
But the sea changes colors,
But the sea,
Does not change
And so, with the slow… graceful flow.
Of age
I went forth, with an age old,
Desire, to please
On the edge of, seventeen
Well then suddenly
There was no one, left standing
In the hall, yeah, yeah,
In a flood of tears
That no one really ever heard fall at all
Oh I went searchin' for an answer,
Up the stairs, and down the hall
Not to find an answer
Just to hear the call
Of a nightbird, singing
Come away, come away
Well I hear you in the morning
And I hear you
At nightfall
Sometime to be near you
Is to be unable, to hear you
My love
I’m a few years older than you
Are (I'm a few years older than you) my love
Just like the white winged dove,
Sings a song
Sounds like she’s singing
Oh baby, oh, said
