[Veronica]
Fine!
We’re damaged
Really damaged
But that does not make us wise
We’re not special, we’re not different
We don’t choose who lives or dies
Let’s be normal, see bad movies
Sneak a beer and watch TV
We’ll bake brownies or go bowling
Don’t you want a life with me?
Can’t we be seventeen?
That’s all I want to do
If you could let me in
I could be good with you
People hurt us
[JD]
Or they vanish
[Veronica]
And you’re right, that really blows
But we let go
[JD]
Take a deep breath
[Veronica]
Then go buy some summer clothes
We'll go camping
[JD]
Play some poker
[Veronica]
And we’ll eat some chili fries
Maybe prom night
[JD]
Maybe dancing
[Veronica]
Don't stop looking in my eyes
[JD]
Your eyes
[Both]
Can't we be seventeen
Is that so hard to do?
If you could let me in
I could be good with you
Let us be seventeen
If we still got the right
[Veronica]
So what’s it gonna be?
I wanna be with you
[JD]
I wanna be with you
[Veronica]
Wanna be with you
[Both]
Tonight
[Veronica]
Yeah we’re damaged
[JD]
Badly damaged
[Both]
But your love’s too good to lose
[Veronica]
Hold me tighter
[JD]
Even closer
[Veronica]
I’ll stay if I’m what you choose
[JD]
Can we be seventeen?
[Veronica]
If I am what you choose
[JD]
If we've still got the right
[Veronica]
‘Cause you’re the one I choose
[JD]
You’re the one I choose
[Both]
You’re the one I choose
