I remember being seventeen years old   Barreling down Blue Diamond Road   If we get there before my parents get home   I could sneak you in      We made it just in time   Snuck in my room   Turned out the lights   We sat in silence for what seemed all night   Till the coast was clear      Forever Seventeen   Remember remember   When a kiss meant everything   Remember remember   Forever Seventeen   What times those were   Forever Seventeen      She was nervous for what it was worth   I said she was the closest thing to heaven on earth   With that she stood up, took off her shirt   Gave me her heart      I remember sitting on the edge of my bed   It felt like I was watching an angel undress   Two young lovers in over their heads   Under the sheets      Forever Seventeen   Remember remember   When a kiss meant everything   Remember remember   Forever Seventeen   What times those were   Forever Seventeen      The night behind us   The sun on her heads   I drove her home in my Dad's Oldsmobile   One hand in hers the other on the wheel   The pedal on the floor      That morning a promise was made   We'll tie the knot as soon as we come of age   We'll rent a chapel, vows will be exchanged   I'll make you my wife      Forever Seventeen   Remember remember   When a kiss meant everything   Remember remember   Forever Seventeen   What times those were   Forever Seventeen
