Seventeen - Tomberlin

Reverence so uncomfortable
You sit across the room
'Cause I'm too scared to talk to you
You knew a friend I knew a friend
I looked down at your hands
Pretending I was looking at the floor
I held your eyes for quite some time
I'm not sure how it happened
I was just surprised
Were you surprised
I walk in the breeze
Like I am seventeen
Love is mostly war
And war what is it for
Only love the people
Who don't love you back
What is up with that
Are you done with that
I can't say I'm much different
'Cause I still love you
I was blinded
And I'm still blinded
I walk in the breeze
Like I am seventeen
Love is mostly war
And love what is it for
I distract myself with other things
To keep myself from you
I'm tired of the others
They never loved you
My life has always been a kind of secret
Can you keep it
Could you keep it
I walk in the breeze
Like I am seventeen
Love is mostly war
And love what is it for
You always say that I look so tough
But it's because I'm tough
But it's because I'm tough
Like I am seventeen
Love is mostly war
And love what is it for
You always say that I look so tough
But it's because I'm tough
And love what is it for
