17 - Mandy Moore

Some people tell me

That you’re not my kind

And I’d believe them

But I can’t get you off of my mind

Some people tell me that I should stay away

Maybe I will, some other day

'Cause it feels right

You know, it feels good

And I don’t always do what I should

And I know what makes me happy

And in my heart, you are it exactly

I don’t wanna do right

I just want you tonight

Not just only in my dreams

Save my best behavior for a little later

'Cause I’m only 17

I think I’ve made my mind up

I’ve got time to grow up

Face responsibility

Livin' in the moment

Keepin' my heart open

While I’m only 17

I’ll learn my lessons

And I’ll make mistakes

And if I get burned

Well, it’ll be my heart to break

It isn’t easy, hearing what they say?

Sometimes you’ve got to

Take a leap of faith

'Cause it feels right

Yeah, it feels good

And I’m not gonna do somethin' stupid

Just this once I wanna feel like

I can do what I want

When I hold tight

I don’t wanna do right

I just want you tonight

Not just only in my dreams

Save my best behavior for a little later

'Cause I’m only 17

I think I’ve made my mind up

I’ve got time to grow up

Face responsibility

Livin' in the moment

Keepin' my heart open

While I’m only 17

Anyone

Who’s ever been

In love

Has got to know

What it means

To have a dream

And no one can

Say anything

To change my mind

No, not this time

'Cause it feels right

You know, it feels good

And I don’t always do what I should

And I know what makes me happy

And in my heart, you are it exactly

I don’t wanna do right

I just want you tonight

Not just only in my dreams

Save my best behavior for a little later

'Cause I’m only 17

I think I’ve made my mind up

I’ve got time to grow up

Face responsibility

Livin' in the moment

Keepin' my heart open

While I’m only 17

I don’t wanna do right

I just want you tonight

Not just only in my dreams

Save my best behavior for a little later

'Cause I’m only 17

I think I’ve made my mind up

I’ve got time to grow up

Face responsibility

Livin' in the moment

Keepin' my heart open

While I’m only 17

Only 17

Yeah

Only 17
