My birthday candles have all gone out
The party's through and I'm alone with you


I feel your sweet lips against my cheek
The lights are off, your shoulder feels so soft
What a nice way to turn 17


My friends are all bought me so many gifts
But yours is the one I'm proudest of

A golden heart inscribed to me
"Happy birthday with all my love"


It feels like heaven here in your arms
Don't let me go, 'cause gee, I love, oh I love you so
What a nice way to turn 17, I'm 17
