[VERSE 1]
Knock on my door, boy come home
You stay in my head
Lay in my arms, why won’t you?
It’s been way too long
What you waiting on?
Cause I’ve been laying here
Learning what the memories won’t do

[CHORUS 1]
See I need you and baby I need to
Let down my guard and give you my scars
Open up my heart
We could be stars…
We could be stars...
We could be stars...

[VERSE 2]
Rap on my window, come home
It’s been a while, so stick around
Why don’t you?
‘Til the end of time
Say that you’ll be mine
An uphill climb fighting what the heart
Really wants to do

[CHORUS 2]
See I need you
And sometimes we need to
Shed our facade and be just who we are
All broken and torn, then we could be stars
Oh we could be stars...
We could be stars...
We could be stars…

Piercing lights in the dark
Make the galaxy ours
Kingdom right where we are
Shining bright as a morning
You’ll never be lonely
Just promise you’ll love me
I’m never too far
And we’ll never part
And we could be stars

[CHORUS 3]
Oh we could be stars...
We could be stars...
Oh we could be stars…

[VERSE 3]
Just find way to get home
There’s a space in my heart
Open arms for you to run to
Baby close your eyes and take the leap
To make believe in fairytales
I’ll meet you there
Oh yea, I’ll fall too

[CHORUS 3]
See I’ve wanted you here
All along but my fear
Just keeps haunting me won’t let me go
So it’s hard to say I love you
We could be stars…
Oh we could be stars...
We could be stars...
We could be stars...

/Verse I/

My daddy says that life comes at you fast
We all like blades of grass
We come to prime and in time we just wither away
And it all changes
My view with a looking glass won’t catch the past
Only photographs remind us of the passing of days
Oh nothing stays the same from yesteryears
See I recall being afraid of the dark
And holding on to teddy bears
I’d wrap myself in blankets just to cover me from fears
That was then and now I’m here
And the night is mine

/Chorus/
So hear me scream
I was too young to understand what it means
I couldn’t wait til I could be seventeen
I thought he lied when he said take my time to dream
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen
I’m Seventeen
Seventeen
Seventeen
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen

/Verse II/

My mother said don’t forget where you come from, where you’ve been
Always keep your closest friends they can’t slip away
They keep you grounded

Oh keep yourself surrounded with good advice
And yeah I guess that sounded nice when I was ten
Oh but never were there truer words

And I’ll my days I’ve ever heard
And when she told me little girl the answer is love
So those are words that I keep with me

Though the seasons change so quickly
Keep them buried in my heart

And never fought

/Chorus/
So hear me scream
I was too young to understand what it means
I couldn’t wait til I could be seventeen
I thought he lied when he said take my time to breathe
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen
I’m Seventeen
Seventeen
Seventeen
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen

/Bridge/

I been goin on, I been growin up
I’m a know it all, I don’t know enough
See I was racing and waiting for the day that I would be old enough
Guess I’ll be patient and pace myself gotta prepare for when goings rough

/Chorus/
So hear me scream
I was too young to understand what it means
I couldn’t wait til I could be seventeen
I thought he lied when he said take my time to breathe
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen
I’m Seventeen
Seventeen
Seventeen
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen

Find table space to say your social graces
Bow your head, they’re pious here, but you and I, we’re pioneers
We make our own rules, our own room, no bias here
Let ‘em sell what they are sellin’, there are no buyers here
So gather all the rebels now, we’ll rebel rouse and sing aloud
We don’t care what they say no way, no way
And we will leave the empty chairs to those who say we can’t sit there
We’re fine all by ourselves

So ay, we brought our drum and this is how we dance
No mistakin’, we make our breaks, if you don’t like our 808s
Then leave us alone, cause we don’t need your policies
We have no apologies for being…

Find me where the wild things are
(Oh my we’ll be alright, don’t mind us, yeah)
Find me where the wild things are
(Oh my we’ll be just fine, don’t mind us, yeah)
Find me where the wild things are

I lose my balance on these eggshells you tell me to tread
I’d rather be a wild one instead
Don’t wanna hang around the in crowd, the cool kids
I’m cool to me, cause they’re not cooler than we are

So ay, we brought our drum and this is how we dance
No mistakin’, we make our breaks, if you don’t like our 808s
Then leave us alone, cause we don’t need your policies
We have no apologies for being…

Find me where the wild things are
(Oh my we’ll be alright, don’t mind us, yeah)
Find me where the wild things are
(Oh my we’ll be just fine, don’t mind us, yeah)

We will carve our place into time and space
We will find our way, or we’ll make a way, say hey, hey, hey
Find you’re great, don’t you hide your face
And let it shine, shine, shine

So ay, we brought our drum and this is how we dance
No mistakin’, we make our breaks, if you don’t like our 808s
Then leave us alone, cause we don’t need your policies
We have no apologies for being…

Find me where the wild things are
(Oh my we’ll be alright, don’t mind us, yeah)
Find me where the wild things are
(Oh my we’ll be just fine, don’t mind us, yeah)
Find me where the wild things are
