Tone - Young & Foolish Lyrics lyrics

rate me

I remember sitting back

Cause you said you had something to say

You told me that you had a secret, yeah yeah

Promised to keep it safe

I kept it for you

And we talked and we laughed

And we sat in the car

And watched the world go past

I tried to dissuade you

But you'd made up your mind

You were wise at seventeen

[Chorus:]

There was nothing I could do

And there was nothing I could say

I didn't know why you asked me

You're gonna do it anyway

Everybody makes mistakes

And everybody feels the same

There was nothing I could do

And there was nothing I could say

They said we've grown up too fast

That we acted young and foolishly

I keep all this in mind when i recall the times

I'd have to disagree

I'll be here for you

Ooh and we talked and we laughed

And we sat in the park

And watched the world go past

I tried to dissuade you

But you know what you're like

You were wise at seventeen

[Chorus:]

There was nothing I could do

And there was nothing I could say

I didn't know why you asked me

You're gonna do it anyway

Everybody makes mistakes

And everybody feels the same

There was nothing I could do

And there was nothing I could say

Birds in the trees sing a song for me

About being young and foolish and naive

I haven't changed that much from what i see

I was only trying to make things right

[Chorus:]

There was nothing I could do

And there was nothing I could say

I didn't know why you asked me

You're gonna do it anyway

Everybody makes mistakes

And everybody feels the same

There was nothing I could do

And there was nothing I could say
