I was 17 and he was too
The best of friends we made it through together
Whatever came our way
He saw me cry but he made me laugh
Probably did things we shouldn't have
But I'd never take them back
Sitting here missin' him wondering how he's been
Since then
Sometimes he'll cross my mind takes me back to that time
And I wonder if
What if we kept our promises
What if we never did forget
What if we meant all the beautiful things we said
What if he made me made me stay
And he was still mine today
What if we could forgive and rebegin
And be 17 again
Ohh
We'd sit by the fire and kiss too long
Then he'd play guitar and I'd sing along
I swear the sound was magic to me
And I didn't care if we were all we had
Say I love you with the squeeze of my hand
Back before growing up began
And now I sit here missing him wondering how he's been
Since then
Sometimes he'll cross my mind takes me back to that time
And I wonder if
What if we kept our promises
What if we never did forget
What if we meant all the beautiful things we said
What if he made me made me stay
And he was still mine today
What if we could forgive and rebegin
And be 17 again
Woah
I've never hurt and I've never loved again like that
If the first real love you have is actually the last
Then I can't talk about us
What if we kept our promises
What if we never did forget
What if we meant all the beautiful things we said
What if he made me made me stay
And he was still mine today
What if we could forgive and rebegin
And be 17 again
Oh ooh
