Edge Of Seventeen

Just like the white winged dove
sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
whoo, whoo, whoo
Just like the white winged dove
sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
oo baby, oo, said oo

And the days go by
like a strand in the wind
In the web that is my own
I begin again
Said to my friend, baby
Nothin' else mattered

He was no more than a baby then
Well he seemed broken hearted
something within him
But the moment that I first laid
Eyes on him all alone...
On the edge of seventeen

Just like the white winged dove
sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
whoo, whoo, whoo
Just like the white winged dove
sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
oo baby, oo, said ooo

I went today maybe I will go again tomorrow
And the music there it was hauntingly familiar
And I see you doing
what I try to do for me
With the words from a poet
and the voice from a choir
And a melody nothing else mattered

Just like the white winged dove
sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
whoo, whoo, whoo
Just like the white winged dove
sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
oo baby, oo, said ooo

The clouds never expect it
when it rains
But the sea changes colours
but the sea
Does not change
And so with the slow graceful flow of age
I went forth with an age old desire to please
On the edge of seventeen

Just like the white winged dove
sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
whoo, whoo, whoo
Just like the white winged dove
sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
oo baby, oo, said ooo

Just like the white winged dove
sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
whoo, whoo, whoo
Just like the white winged dove
sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
oo baby, oo, said ooo

Just like the white winged dove
sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
ooo baby, ooo said ( 7x)

Al Borde De Los 17

Y los dias pasan
como una cuerda en el viento
en mi propia telaraña
comienzo denuevo
dije a mis amigos ,cariño
nada mas importaba

Ya no era mas como un bebe
Bien parecia un corazon roto
algo dentro de el
Pero en el momento en el que yo puse primero
mis ojos en el..tan solo
al borde de los diecisiete

simplemente como el ala blanca de la paloma
canta una cancion
suena como si ella estuviese cantando
ohh.ohhh.ohhh ohhh
simplemente como el ala blanca de la paloma
canta una cancion
suena como si ella estuviese cantando
ohhh ohh ohh ohh

Fui hoy,quizas vaya mañana
Y la musica alli me sonaba familiar
Y te veo haciendo
Lo que trato de hacer para mi
con las palabras de un poeta
y la voz de un coro
y la melodia,nada mas importaba

simplemente como el ala blanca de la paloma
canta una cancion
suena como si ella estuviese cantando
ohh.ohhh.ohhh ohhh
simplemente como el ala blanca de la paloma
canta una cancion
suena como si ella estuviese cantando
ohhh ohh ohh ohh

las nubes nucan lo esperan
cuando llueve
excepto el mar cambia los colores
pero el mar
no cambia
Y con la lenta elegancia del cambio de edad
Yo segui adelante con un año mas y un deseo que complacer

simplemente como el ala blanca de la paloma
canta una cancion
suena como si ella estuviese cantando
ohh.ohhh.ohhh ohhh
simplemente como el ala blanca de la paloma
canta una cancion
suena como si ella estuviese cantando
ohhh ohh ohh ohh

simplemente como el ala blanca de la paloma
canta una cancion
suena como si ella estuviese cantando
ohh.ohhh.ohhh ohhh
simplemente como el ala blanca de la paloma
canta una cancion
suena como si ella estuviese cantando
ohhh ohh ohh ohh
