Edge of Seventeen

Chorus:
Just like the white winged dove
sings a song that sounds like she's singin'
Ooo...ooo...ooo
Just like the white winged dove
sings a song that sounds like she's singin'
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, nothin' else matters"
He was no more...than a baby then
And well, he seemed broken-hearted...somethin' within him
And the moment...that I first laid...eyes...on...him...
All alone on the edge of...seventeen

Chorus

Well I went today...maybe I will go again...tomorrow
And the music there, well it was...hauntingly..familiar
When I see you doin' what I try to do for me
With the words of a poet and the voice of a choir and a melody...
Nothin' else matters

Chorus

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

OOOOooooooOOooooHHH!

Chorus

And then suddenly....there was no-one left standing in the hall
With a flood of tears that no-one really ever heard fall at all
Well 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...
Singin' "Come away" (come away...come away)

Chorus

Well I hear you (I hear you)
in the mornin'  (in the mornin')
and I hear you  (I hear you)
at night fall   (nightfall)
and sometimes (sometimes) to be near you...is to be...unable....
to feel you
My love
I'm a few years older than you are (I'm a few years older than you) my love

Chorus

Well, I hear the call of a nightbird
I hear the call of a nightbird (every night, in the night, all my life)
I hear the call of a nightbird
I still hear the call of a nightbird......!
