Sharon Van Etten - Seventeen lyrics

[Sharon Van Etten - Seventeen lyrics]

I know what you wanna say
I think that you're all the same
Constantly being led astray
You think you know something you don't

Downtown hotspot halfway up the street
I used to be free, I used to be seventeen
Follow my shadow around your corner
I used to be seventeen
Now you're just like me

Down beneath the ashes and the stone
Sure of what I've lived and have known
I see you so uncomfortably alone
I wish I could show you how much you've grown

Downtown hotspot used to be on this street
I used to be seventeen
I used to be seventeen
Now you're a hotshot hanging on my block
Sun coming up, who's my shadow?

La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la

I know what you're gonna be
I know that you're gonna be
You'll crumble it up just to see
Afraid that you'll be just like me

Downtown hotspot halfway through this life
I used to feel free, or was it just a dream?
Now you're a hotshot
Think you're so carefree
But, you're just seventeen, so much like me
You're just seventeen, you're just seventeen
Seventeen
