Sometimes you love people so much that you wish you could travel back in time to be there at all the moments they needed you.

VERSE 1:
Sometimes I wish that I would be seventeen again
And I’d meet you in the park on a sunny morning
I’d put my arms around you, and hold you so tight
That all of your nightmares would come to pass

VERSE 2:
Sometimes I wish that I would be seventeen again
To keep all these bad boys a distance away
To shelter you from their lies and from their hate
And from the sad thoughts you had at night

CHORUS:
Cause sticks and stones can break your bones
And tear your heart to pieces
Yes the stones will break your bones
And then burn your soul alway

VERSE 3:
If I could turn the clock back, rewind the hands of time
I would be there on the days when your thoughts went dark
If I could lighten up your somber days with a smile
I'd show you a future that looked bright

VERSE 4:
If I could be seventeen again, I’d teach you how to fight
I’f teach you how to raise your fists and rise out of the night
If I was seventeen again I’d keep you close to me
I’d wave away the clouds and tell you you’re free

CHORUS:
Cause sticks and stones can break your bones
And tear your heart to pieces
Yes the stones will break your bones
And then burn your soul alway

VERSE 5 (BRIDGE):
I’d tear down every wall, fight every fear you have
To give you all of the love that is mine
I’d fight against thousands, and I would fight every day
To bring you peace and joy and chase the pain away

VERSE 6:
If only I'd be seventeen again
I could meet you in the park on a sunny morning
I could put my arms around you, and hold you so tight
That all of your nightmares could come to pass
