Bread - Seventeen lyrics

Seventeen, it's been a while since I was seventeen And the years since have been mighty lean But there's no use complaining And forty-two has a way of creeping up on you And my chances left are getting few But there's still time remaining And I've been waiting for someone, who loves the way I do Girl I got my fingers crossed, in hopes it might be you Seventeen, it's been a while since I was seventeen And the years since have been mighty lean But there's no use complaining And forty-two has a way of creeping up on you And my chances left are getting few But there's still time remaining And I've been waiting for someone, who loves the way I do Girl I got my fingers crossed, in hopes it might be you Twenty-one, that's how many different jobs I've done I remember quitting every one With no hesitating And thirty-three, that's how many women left on me I don't have too good a history But I don't mind waiting Cause it really doesn't matter how many years we've seen Cause love is always seventeen Wonder if you'll be the one to end this lonesome heart Cause girl I got a lot to give and I'd sure like to start Cause it really doesn't matter how many years we've seen Cause love is always seventeen
