I was only seventeen living out a reckless dream

Riding those summer streets

to the corner of High and 13

Me and other city boys running too wild

and too bored

Looking for a grown man's toys out

at that corner store

Well they threw the money to me

and somebody's I D

I was in the parking lot scared as hell

Sending sixteen dollars down a wishing well

Two bottles of wine those red and blue lights

Took a trip down town for the very first time

Watching my own life flash before my eyes

Like I was seventeen

She was from across the tracks

with the private school laugh

We were both falling too fast down a river

that wouldn't last

It was only one night and our first time

I was in the parking lot scared as hell

Sending sixteen dollars down a wishing well

I held her tight between those yellow lines

Sat there crying about a miscarried life

Watching my own life flash before my eyes

Like I was seventeen

Oh it was a lifetime ago

I pray for mercy walking on down that road

I met the woman of my dreams

she said yes to me

And she said Baby I'm late never this late

I'm feeling a change

We should find out either way

And I'm grabbing my keys

and I'm shutting the front door

I can hardly breathe driving that familiar road

And I'm parked between those yellow lines

Looking down that aisle

Don't know whether to laugh or whether to cry

I'm in the parking lot scared as hell

Sending sixteen dollars down a wishing well

Two pink lines or maybe just one

Could be my daughter or it could be my son

Watching our own lives flash before my eyes

Like I was seventeen

Funny how the years switch

around the tears that way

Like I was seventeen
