[Verse 1]
Seventeen
I just wanted to be in love
My very own whale song
My one true hum

[Verse 2]
I call for you
Across the hill and valley too
I put out a dream
I hope it reaches you

[Chorus]
Lay on my back
Feel your face in the cloud
Time is fickle in the space it allows
It could be 24 hours till I see you

[Verse 3]
Eighteen
Wading through the sea of love
Has become a chore
A bore without you

[Verse 4]
The alphabet
Has everything you mean to me
When you align four letters
Perfectly
[Chorus]
Lay on my back
Feel your face in the cloud
Time is fickle in the space it allows
It could be 24 hours till I see you

[Verse 5]
What if I miss you at a highlight
Or at a stoplight
I’ll know, I’ll know
I’ll know, I’ll know
Will I miss you at the first light
Or at first sight
I’ll know, I’ll know, I’ll know

[Chorus]
Lay on my back
Feel your face in the cloud
Time is fickle in the space it allows
It could be 24 hours till I see you
Lay on my back
Our time is fickle in the space it allows
It could be 24 hours till I see you
See you, see you
