“Seventeen” (The Saddest Song About Outgrowing Love & Being Left Behind) Verse 1 You were twenty, and I was seventeen You had bars and basements, I had childhood dreams Three years don’t sound like much ‘Til you’re too busy growing up I kept the promise, I held on tight But you let go somewhere that night You said “Don’t wait up, I’ll call you soon” But I learned silence speaks louder than you Pre-Chorus And do you ever flinch when you hear my name? Or am I just a love you outgrew like a phase? Would you even notice if I walked away? Would you even care if I never stayed? Chorus Somewhere, still, I wait for you Like a fool who don’t know when to leave Somewhere, still, I whisper your name Like a prayer no one will believe But you’re not the same, you’re someone new And I’m just a kid compared to you Funny how time makes love feel small Funny how I don’t know you at all Verse 2 You’re laughing loud in someone else’s car Drunk off cheap beer and cheap goodbyes You say “It’s just college, it’s not that deep” But when did it get so easy to forget me? And I wonder, when you close your eyes Do I still live somewhere in your mind? Or am I just a name you used to know A ghost in a town you outgrew long ago? Pre-Chorus And do you ever flinch when you hear my name? Or am I just a love you outgrew like a phase? Would you even notice if I walked away? Would you even care if I never stayed? Chorus Somewhere, still, I hold on tight To the boy who swore I was his whole life Somewhere, still, I whisper your name Like a secret I can’t let slip away But you’re not the same, you’re someone new And I’m just a kid compared to you Funny how time makes love feel small Funny how I don’t know you at all Bridge I was seventeen, believing in forever You were twenty, already knowing better I thought love could make you stay But love is not a choice you made I was seventeen, waiting in the dark While you were twenty, drinking in her car And I thought love was all we’d need But I was just a kid, and you were twenty-three Chorus (Stripped Down, Devastating) Somewhere, still, I wait for you Like a fool who don’t know when to leave Somewhere, still, I whisper your name Like a prayer no one will believe But you’re not the same, you’re someone new And I’m just a kid compared to you Funny how time makes love feel small Funny how I don’t know you at all Outro I was seventeen, you were twenty Three years ain’t much ‘til it’s everything I swore I knew you, swore you’d care But you were gone before I got there

[Verse] Broken dreams scattered on the floor Echoes whisper ghosts from behind closed doors Midnight feels colder than before Lonely heart can't take much more [Verse 2] Every step is heavy like lead Memories taunting inside my head Losing grip of words unsaid Nightmares sleeping in my bed [Chorus] Shadows drown me in the dark Lost and found but missing the spark Rain falls heavy leaves a mark Can't find the way out of this park [Verse 3] Silent cries beneath the moon Hope feels like a fading tune Stars won't shine they left too soon Heart is stranded in a monsoon [Chorus] Shadows drown me in the dark Lost and found but missing the spark Rain falls heavy leaves a mark Can't find the way out of this park [Bridge] Broken wings can't lift me high Fallen dreams below the sky Silent tears when angels cry Waiting here to say goodbye
[Verse] With the wind in our hair and the radio loud, We hit the backroads, away from the crowd. The sun’s sinking low, painting the sky, In this beat-up truck, just you and I. [Verse 2] Dust on the tires, freedom in the air, Laughter and stories without a single care. The world can wait, as we drive all night, Under the stars, everything feels right. [Chorus] We’re chasing sunsets, holding onto dreams, Living for the moment, or so it seems. Hand in hand, heart to heart, From the very start. [Verse 3] The moon rises high, a silver glow, Lighting the path, wherever we go. We’ll find our way, through every twist and turn, With every mile, more memories to burn. [Verse 4] Bonfire nights and whiskey tunes, Dancing shadows beneath the moon. Life’s too short to stand still, So let's keep moving, keep climbing that hill. [Chorus] We’re chasing sunsets, holding onto dreams, Living for the moment, or so it seems. Hand in hand, heart to heart, In this journey, together from the start.
[Verse] نجوم الليل فوقي تسطع وأنا قلبي يريد وينطبع في لحظة سحرية البيت يلمع ونرقص في الضياء إلى الصبح نسطع [Verse 2] كل لمسة تبعث روح الحب وأحلامنا ترتفع فوق السحب ضحكاتنا تملأ كل درب وما نحس بأي تعب [Chorus] لما القمر يجي ويشعل مشاعرنا تطير وتدخل في عالم آخر فوق الخيال ونصير مثل النجوم في الحال [Bridge] قلبي يعزف لحن جديد وأحس بنبضة جديدة تزيد معاك يا حبيبي كل شيء فريد وما نعرف إلا الفرح والسعيد [Verse 3] نراقص النجوم في كل مساء ولا نعرف للخوف أي انتماء معاك دومًا اغني أنا وشعور الإكتساء بالحب اللي ملكني ملء الهواء [Chorus] لما القمر يجي ويشعل مشاعرنا تطير وتدخل في عالم آخر فوق الخيال ونصير مثل النجوم في الحال
[Verse] Mưa rơi ngoài hiên tênh Ký ức phủi lớp bụi mờ Nắm tay em một thời Giờ tan theo ai ơi [Verse 2] Đêm nay buồn lê thê Bóng hình xưa đâu rồi Hai ta đi hai ngả Chỉ còn nỗi đau thôi [Chorus] Đường xưa anh vẫn bước Mỗi bước chậm lặng im Ngỡ ngàng trong làn khói Chìm đắm trong nỗi niềm [Verse 3] Góc phố ướt mưa rơi Nhớ mùi hương tóc em Yêu thương giờ đã lỡ Chỉ còn lại môi mềm [Bridge] Tiếng cười vang đâu đây Hòa tan vào hư không Những ngày vui đã xa Giờ sao thật trống rỗng [Chorus] Đường xưa anh vẫn bước Mỗi bước chậm lặng im Ngỡ ngàng trong làn khói Chìm đắm trong nỗi niềm
(Verse 1) The sun is rising on a brand-new day, We hear the echoes calling far away, Hearts are burning, voices loud and strong, We stand together, we belong. (Pre-Chorus) Through the fire, through the storm, We have the power to transform, Hand in hand, we light the way, A brighter future starts today. (Chorus) Ohh, thousand youths, rise up high, Dreams like embers touch the sky, We are the spark, we are the flame, No more fear, no more shame. (Verse 2) We’ve walked through shadows, faced the night, Still, we march on, chasing light, No more silence, no retreat, The world will tremble at our feet. (Pre-Chorus) Through the fire, through the storm, We have the power to transform, Hand in hand, we light the way, A brighter future starts today. (Chorus) Ohh, thousand youths, rise up high, Dreams like embers touch the sky, We are the spark, we are the flame, No more fear, no more shame. (Bridge) We are the voices, we are the tide, The time is now, no more divide, From every city, every land, Together strong, we make a stand. (Final Chorus) Ohh, thousand youths, rise up high, Dreams like embers touch the sky, We are the spark, we are the flame, No more fear, no more shame. (Outro – softly fading) The sun is rising, a brand-new day, A thousand voices lead the way.
