C#
Let's take our time
Fm
While it's still ours to take
C#
'Cause some things hardly change
Fm
But nothing ever stays the same
C#
Let's fall back in love
Fm
With the world and who we are
C#
And do the things we talked about
Fm
But never did before
And darling
C#
Don't blink because you will
G# C#
And when you open up your eyes again
G#
You may not recognize a friend
C# G#
It may be bittersweet
'Cause we're no longer
C# G#
Seventeen, but we're still young
C# G#
So dance with me in naivety
C# G#
And follow endlessly
C#
The sound of reverie
C#
Make up our minds
Fm
While they're still ours to make
C#
The past is in the rear view
Fm
And the future holds no weight
C#
We've got a lot
Fm
But what do we got to lose?
C#
Besides the track of time
Fm
And all the ugly shades of blue?
C# G#
So forget the hearts and all the flowers
C#
And we share the clouds that I've been walking on and
G#
Focus on the trip we're on
C# G#
It may be bittersweet
'Cause we're no longer
C# G#
Seventeen, but we're still young
C# G#
So dance with me in naivety
C# G#
And follow endlessly
C#
The sound of reverie
Fm G#
I was bittersweet
Fm G#
But, baby, did I
Fm G#
And if you blink
Fm G#
Or you won't remember
C# G#
It's tough to be anything these days
C# G#
They tell me how much of now is ours to take
C# G#
Some say the passing of time is bittersweet
C#
But I think I love time the most when I'm with you
G#
And it truly doesn't mean a thing
C#
Don't blink because you will
G# C#
And when you open up your eyes again
G#
(Your eyes again)
C#
And darling don't blink because you will
G# C#
And when you open up your eyes again
G#
You may not recognize a friend
C# G#
It may be bittersweet
'Cause we're no longer
C# G#
Seventeen, but we're still young
C# G#
So dance with me in naivety
C# G#
And follow endlessly
C#
In reverie
