Jade Bird - 17 Lyrics




You asked me to be yours
Well, you're tempting fate
How I left a promise but it's one I can't make
Lord knows it'd kill me if you walked away
But darling
My lies, they hide you from the pain

Stay, let me explain why I act so mean
Don't look away, baby
It's not all that it seems
I'm so afraid that you'll just get up and leave
My heart will break like I'm 17

You're not the first one to leave me and you won't be the last
It just doesn't heave me like it did in the past
I will never be seen to act like you act
To take someone easy and leave it at that

Stay, let me explain why I act so mean
Don't look away
Baby, it's not all that it seems
I'm so afraid that you'll just get up and leave
My heart will break like I'm 17
Break like I'm 17

I say less than I should
I say more than I mean
I would try if I could
But I'm all I can be
If I had more I would change the cover, you see
I have walls that have stood before you ever loved me
Before you ever loved me

Stay, let me explain why I act so mean
Don't look away
Baby, it's not all that it seems
I'm so afraid that you'll just get up and leave
My heart will break
Stay, let me explain why I act so mean
Don't look away
Baby it's not all that it seems
I'm so afraid that you'll just get up and leave
My heart will break like I'm 17
Break like I'm 17
Break like I'm 17
