My daddy left home when I was a kid |
|
Said he had to move on |
|
He took the bottle as his only friend |
|
I didn't know why, I didn't know why |
|
Mama tried to do the best that she could |
|
But she just didn't understand |
|
All the confusion I was feeling inside |
|
I didn't know why, I didn't know why |
|
Feeling so alone |
|
How I wish back then I'd known |
|
When I was seventeen |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
You were callin' |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
While I was fallin' |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
When I was seventeen, seventeen |
|
From study hall to the senior prom |
|
I felt like no one at all |
|
And just a shadow in a crowded room |
|
I didn't know why, I didn't know why |
|
Thought I was to blame |
|
While Your love screamed out my name |
|
When I was seventeen |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
You were callin' |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
While I was fallin' |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
When I was seventeen |
|
Sure, I heard You died for me |
|
I heard about the Cross |
|
But oh, the pain was burning deep |
|
It took so long to hear Your voice |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
You were callin' |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
While I was fallin' |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
When I was seventeen |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
You were callin' me |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
While I was fallin' |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
When I was seventeen |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
You were callin' me |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
While I was fallin' |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
When I was seventeen |
|
I found a photo of my mom and dad |
|
A few tears later I could see |
|
How much You loved that lonely boy I was |
|
Seventeen |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
Na na, na na na na |
|
When I was seventeen |
