Seventeen, I was living life  Chasing dreams and my hopes were high  Trying to get around my fear of  When and where do I go from here    I asked somebody close to me  Who could see a lot further than a boy could see  Oh, oh, oh and he said...    Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by  I still feel seventeen inside, not one day over  Don't let the trials of life, change who you are tonight  Stay seventeen each time you get one year older    I said you're at that time of life when your heart is strong  Your future's bright, you can do no wrong  And don't you let those feelings out of sight  Keep a hold of them as the years go rolling by    These words have always stuck with me  But now I'm only getting what it all appears to mean  Oh, oh, oh and he said...    Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by  I still feel seventeen inside, not one day over  Don't let the trials of life, change who you are tonight  Stay seventeen each time you get one year older    He said...my years have come and gone, in oh such little time  And I hope you live your life the way that I lived mine  Stay young at heart, stay young in mind    So I said...    Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by  I'm still seventeen inside, not one day over  I won't let the trials of life, change who I am tonight  Stay seventeen each time you get one year older    One year older, one year older....oh my oh my oh my oh my    So stay seventeen each time you get one year older
