I was only seventeen when
You showed up, a feathered dream.
Something I wish I'd never seen
Slightly younger pretty face when
Life was just an empty suitcase
Oh, how I wish I'd given you space
Same me, different view
New perspective, without you
A landscape's beauty in my windowframe
But I'd choose you over it all again and again and again
I'm turning twentytwo
Still so much I'd love to do
This time I thought I wouldn't feel this blue
But then again there's you
I'm turning twentytwo
Still so much I wish I knew
This time I thought I had a little clue
But then again there's you
When I'm turning twentytwo
I was celebrating twenty years when
Life went down a different stream
Something I wish you'd never seen
Slightly older pretty face when
I packed my life in a little suitcase
Oh, how I wish I'd left you some space
Same me, different view
New perspective, without you
A big city's beauty in my windowframe
But I'd choose you over it all again and again and again
I'm turning twentytwo
Still so much I'd love to do
This time I thought I wouldn't feel this blue
But then again there's you
I'm turning twentytwo
Still so much I wish I knew
This time I thought I had a little clue
But then again there's you
When I'm turning twentytwo
There's a smell of dust from the piano
And I come to think I'm only 2 years away
From laughing, living if you hadn't let me leave
There's books in every faded colour
And I come to think I'm only 2 years away
From laughing, living, If I just told you I love you
