Love Is Always Seventeen lyrics

Seventeen -- It`s been a while since I`ve been seventeen
And the years since have been mighty lean
But there`s no use complainin`
Forty-two--has a way of creeping up on you
And my chances left are gettin` few
But there`s till time remainin`

I`ve been waiting for someone
Who loves the way I do
And girl I`ve got my fingers crossed
In hopes it might be you...
Twenty-one...that`s how many different jobs I`ve done
I remember quittin` every one
With no hesitatin`
And thirty-three... that`s how many women left on me
I don`t have too good a history
But I don`t mind waitin`...
Cause it really doesn`t matter
How many years you`ve seen
Cause Love is Always Seventeen
Wonder if you`ll be the one
To end this lonesome heart
`Cause girl I`ve got a lot to give
