Between Seventeen And Twenty Lyrics

I wonder who's sleeping in your sheets tonight

Whose head rests upon the bed

Could it be a close friend I knew so well

Who seems to be so close to you instead, close to you instead?



I'm blue tonight, I'm red when I'm mad

I'm green when I'm jealous, yellow when I'm sad

I guess I cannot have everything

So much has flown between the years

When I was twenty, oh, and you were seventeen



So out of choice I chose rock and roll

But it pushed me to the limit everyday

It turned me into a gypsy, kept me away from home

From there on, there seemed no use for you, for you to stay



And if I shower around 3 a.m., it's just to wash away

The trace of a love unwanted

Oh in the times I went astray, the times I went astray

So out of choice I chose rock and roll

But it pushed me to the limit everyday

It turned me into a gypsy, kept me away from home

From there on, there seemed no use for you for you to stay



I'm blue tonight, I'm red when I'm mad

I'm green when I'm jealous, yellow when I'm sad

I guess I cannot have everything

So much has flown between the years

When I was twenty, ooh, and you were seventeen



So much has flown between the years

When I was twenty, oh, and you were seventeen

So much has flown between the years

When I was twenty, oh, and you were seventeen

So much has flown between the years

When I was twenty, oh, and you were seventeen
