17
[Verse 1]
She was young with the sunlight
Golden and she wore a flower dress in her emptiness
Empty in her disguise
Camera lens and the dirt in the mirror
Her body a fountain and love will steer her
Through love we undo

[Chorus]
And she never tried this hard
But she was like a dream upon the silver screen
Held the same old love since she was seventeen
While the sunlight passes, we will too
Now imagine all this from her point of view

[Verse 2]
And she was scraping her knees in the city
No one could hold her down
No one wanted to try
Trying hard in vain
Words on paper, the dirt in the mirror
She talks like she knows that her love will steer her
Through love we undo
[Chorus]
Oh, but she never tried this hard
She was like a dream upon the silver screen
Held the same old love since she was seventeen
While the sunlight passes, we will too
Now imagine all this from her point of view, oh

[Bridge]
She was a friend of mine
Oh
She was a friend of mine
Oh, she was a friend
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh

[Chorus]
She never tried this hard
But she was like a dream upon the silver screen
Held the same old love since she was seventeen
While the sunlight passes, we will too
Now imagine all this from her point of view
She was like a dream upon the silver screen
Held the same old love since she was seventeen
While the sunlight passes, we will too
Now imagine all this from her point of view, oh
[Outro]
She was a friend of mine, yeah
