Seventeen Song Lyrics

---

VERONICA
Fine, we're damaged
Really damaged.
But that does not make us wise.
We're not special.
We're not different.
We don't choose who lives or dies
Let?s be normal. See bad movies
Sneak a beer and watch tv.
We'll bake brownies,
or go bowling --
Don't you want a life with me?
Can't we be seventeen?
That's all I want to do
If you could let me in.
I could be good with you.
People hurt us

J.D.
Or they vanish...

VERONICA
And you're right that really blows.
But we let go...

J.D.
Take a deep breath...

VERONICA
Then go buy some summer clothes
We'll go camping...

J.D.
Play some poker...

VERONICA
And we'll eat some chili fries.
Maybe prom night...

J.D.
Maybe dancing...

VERONICA
Don't stop looking in my eyes...

J.D.
Your eyes...

VERONICA & J.D.
Can't we be seventeen?
Is that so hard to do?
If you could let me in.
I could be good with you.
Let us be seventeen,
If we've still got the right.

VERONICA
So what?s it gonna be?
I wanna be with you --

J.D.
I wanna be with you...

VERONICA
Wanna be with you,

VERONICA & J.D.
Tonight!

VERONICA
Yeah we're damaged.

J.D.
Badly damaged.

VERONICA & J.D.
But your love?s too good to lose.

VERONICA
Hold me tighter...

J.D.
Even closer...

VERONICA
I'll stay if I'm what you choose.

J.D.
Can't we be seventeen?

VERONICA
If I am what you choose...

J.D.
If we've still got the right...

VERONICA
'Cause you're the one I choose.

J.D.
You're the one I choose.

VERONICA
You're the one I choose.
