I was only 17 when he
Came around and passed my way
He was the finest thing I'd ever seen

And his eyes were green
Him and the boys played basketball
While I was chillin at the park

He had a smile that could shine a light
On your darkest days
He came up to me and said

Excuse me what's your name
I was just wondering if you would like 2 get away


[Chorus]

Do you remember me?

At the age of 17
You fell in love with me
But it was never ever meant to be


Later on as we got to know each other
I just wanted this day to last forever

But as I learned more bout him
I wondered if I'd ever see him again
There was something bout the way he made me feel

It felt as though the whole world were standing still
And when we talked I could see
He was the perfect man for me

When he took me home that night
I knew that I was gone
He walked me to my door

And that's when I started to write this song

[Chorus]


Do you remember me?
At the age of 17

You fell in love with me
But it was never ever meant to be


Do you remember me?
I was only 17
Lived my life so wild and free

But it was never ever meant to be

I fell in love the moment I laid my eyes on him

But that's just the problem
Cuz he was already in a relationship
He said he wasn't happy

It wasn't working
And I reminded him of the way that she used to be
He said he couldn't stay and that was just the way

At the sweet age of 17

[Chorus]
