Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some people tell me That you're not my kind And I'd believe them But I can't get you off of my mind Some people tell me that I should stay away Maybe I will, some other day [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause it feels right You know, it feels good And I don't always do what I should And I know what makes me happy And in my heart, you are it exactly [Chorus] I don't wanna do right I just want you tonight Not just only in my dreams Save my best behavior for a little later 'Cause I'm only 17 I think I've made my mind up I've got time to grow up Face responsibility Livin' in the moment Keepin' my heart open While I'm only 17 [Verse 2] I'll learn my lessons And I'll make mistakes And if I get burned Well, it'll be my heart to break It isn't easy, hearing what they say? Sometimes you've got to Take a leap of faith [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause it feels right Yeah, it feels good And I'm not gonna do somethin' stupid Just this once I wanna feel like I can do what I want When I hold tight [Chorus] I don't wanna do right I just want you tonight Not just only in my dreams Save my best behavior for a little later 'Cause I'm only 17 I think I've made my mind up I've got time to grow up Face responsibility Livin' in the moment Keepin' my heart open While I'm only 17 [Bridge] Anyone Who's ever been In love Has got to know What it means To have a dream And no one can Say anything To change my mind No, not this time [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause it feels right You know, it feels good And I don't always do what I should And I know what makes me happy And in my heart, you are it exactly I don't wanna do right I just want you tonight Not just only in my dreams Save my best behavior for a little later 'Cause I'm only 17 I think I've made my mind up I've got time to grow up Face responsibility Livin' in the moment Keepin' my heart open While I'm only 17 I don't wanna do right I just want you tonight Not just only in my dreams Save my best behavior for a little later 'Cause I'm only 17 I think I've made my mind up I've got time to grow up Face responsibility Livin' in the moment Keepin' my heart open While I'm only 17 [Outro] Only 17 Yeah Only 17
