17 - Watershed

The first time we laid down was so tender

And the next night I remember kept her high heels on…

So excited, I invited her to stay a while

Just as long as she promised to keep that red dress on…

How was I to know she was only fooling around…

'cos I was only 17, just trying to keep my hands clean

Did’nt know what love could mean, I was living life…

On the radio they played that song called 'Layla'

And she turned it up as she came across the room to me…

And I held her close like she was made of angel glass

Never realised that what we had could never last…

How was I to know she was only fooling around…

'cos I was only 17, just trying to keep my hands clean

Did’nt know what love could mean, I was living life…

I was only trying to be good, it was misunderstood

Just living like a boy should…

I was living life…

I was living life, oh it does’nt seem so long ago

That I was living life, it amazes me how time can pass you by…

When you living life, how was I to know she was only fooling around…

Just fooling around…

Na, na, na… living life…

Living life…
