Tony Banks - Only Seventeen lyrics
rate meShe was an only child
With her body and mind she had to much attention
Too much of everything
She was an angel child
But the devil within her would test her on the way
Into the dark filled places underground
She entered in forbidden rooms
Only seventeen
All alone so alone
All alone so alone
Into the tunnel and back toward the light
That shines between the fingers of dark
The light that shines showing the way to the start
She was an only child
She had so far to fall then so far to climb
To get to the light again
She was a special child
She know what was coming but she know she could not turn
Back in the dark filled rooms
One of a crowd but more than on her own
All alone so alone
All alone so alone
Into the tunnel and back toward the light
That shines between the fingers of dark
The light that shines showing the way to the start
Only seventeen somewhere in between
The race is almost over now
The dance is almost done
Remember how it was when it was fun?
All alone so alone
All alone so alone
Into the tunnel and back toward the light
That shines between the fingers of dark
The light that shines showing the way to the start
