Look at me, I'm only seventeen   The many years between us have been broken   Look at me under the evergreen   Life is a mellow dream almost unspoken      By the way, you said you're here to stay   Let me love you 'til tomorrow   Then it will last a year and a day   Maybe we're here to forget      Look at me, I'm only seventeen   It hasn't been too long but it's been lonely   Look at me and smell the tangerine   Life is a mellow song but only, only      By the time, you reach your lemon-lime   I will love you 'til tomorrow   Then it will last a year and a day   Maybe we're here to forget      Look at me, I'm only seventeen   It hasn't been too long but it's been lonely   Look at me, under the evergreen   Life is a mellow song if only, only
