If I could stop time out of happiness

I would leave this age never

I'd stop, hit "rewind", and pause on this time

To stay seventeen forever



For three-hundred and sixty-five days of the year

Every year for the rest of my life

Every second, every minute, every moment, every instant

Seventeen till the end of all time



I found the meaning of love here

And memories I'll never get past

So I'd freeze every second, and never regret it

To make sure that seventeen lasts



I discovered a sense of belonging

I reached the place I'm at peace

So I'd capture this minute, and always live in it

Cause seventeen I want to keep



I found all that I had been searching for

I can't leave now, no "goodbye"'s

I'd reside in these moments, for always I'd own them

Seventeen till the sun ceased to rise



Like slowly turning page after page

In a book that ended never

Stop the hands of time, like a state of mind

I will be seventeen forever
