Ellis Paul - Seventeen Septembers lyrics

Do you remember 17 Septembers ago Sweat on the backseat Dylan on the radio You peeled off your troubles When you peeled off your old blue jeans But in the dash light She's like an angel fallen to earth And you convince yourself that she's worth Every risk you took the night the cornfields shook Bye, bye baby, in the click of hands Hello yet-to-be mystery man One night in a car changed who you are A boy a the front wheel 17 Septembers have pa**ed "Pop the clutch with your left heel..." You're linking up his future, your past And you tell him, "Your mom and me were bound for trouble- Wedding bells at the age of 18..." But in the dash light He looks like an angel fallen to earth And now you know how it cold have been worse For every risk you took the night the cornfield shook Bye, bye baby, in the click of the hand Look he's a yet-to-be mystery man Who played kick-the-can With a gla** filled with sand
