Edge of Seventeen

Edge Of Seventeen - Stevie Nicks

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
Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo

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
ooo baby... ooo... said ooo...
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo

I went today
Maybe I will go again tomorrow
Yea yea, well
And the music there
Well, 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
ooo baby... ooo... said ooo

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooo baby... ooo... 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
Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo

Well then suddenly
There was no one left standing
In the hall yeah yeah
In a flood of tears
That no one really ever heard fall at all

Oh I went searchin' for an answer
Up the stairs and down the hall
Not to find an answer
Just to hear the call
Of a nightbird singing
Come away come away

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooo... baby ooo... said ooo

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song.
Sounds like she's singing
Ooo... baby ooo... said ooo

Well I hear you in the morning
And I hear you
At nightfall
Sometime to be near you
Is to be unable to hear you
My love
I'm a few years older than you
My love

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo
