I Was Only (Seventeen)

[00:01.29] I was only tryin to keep the wall from closing in
[00:04.89] I was only waiting 'round for something to begin
[00:09.83] I was only seventeen
[00:13.80] I told you that it didn't mean a thing...
[00:21.56] Feels like a million years ago
[00:26.19] Small town where everybody knows
[00:31.97] Everything about everybody else
[00:39.89] Way back when there wasn't you and me
[00:44.94] I guess I was still naive
[00:50.50] And the moment was as far as I could see
[00:57.11] (Chorus)
[00:58.49] I was only tryin to keep the wall from closing in
[01:03.31] I was only waiting 'round for something to begin
[01:08.02] I was only seventeen
[01:11.90] I told you that it didn't mean a thing...
[01:17.43] Why can't you just love me?
[01:21.55] Please, don't push too hard
[01:26.10] The truth you think you're after
[01:31.12] Might just break your heart
[01:36.32] Someone who I thought was my friend
[01:40.85] But sometimes people just pretend
[01:47.12] And I will never be the same again
[01:52.96] (Chorus)
[01:54.20] I was only tryin to keep the wall from closing in
[01:59.39] I was only waiting 'round for something to begin
[02:04.05] I was only seventeen
[02:08.19] I told you that it didn't mean a thing...
[02:13.09] Why can't you just love me?
[02:17.55] Please, don't push too hard
[02:22.14] The truth you think you're after
[02:26.95] Might just break your heart
[02:31.95] I'm sure there's things you'd rather keep inside
[02:36.35] I won't ask you about all the things you've tried
[02:41.38] Don't let yesterday get in the way
[02:45.44] Why can't we just start from where we are?
[02:54.31] (Chorus)
[02:55.27] I was only tryin to keep the wall from closing in
[02:59.82] I was only waiting 'round for something to begin
[03:04.32] I was only seventeen
[03:08.44] I told you that it didn't mean a thing...
[03:13.26] Why can't you just love me?
[03:17.77] Please, don't push too hard
[03:22.69] The truth you think you're after
[03:27.68] Might just break my heart...
[03:34.12]
