Young and Foolish - Tone Damli

I remember sitting back

cause you said you had something to say

you told me that you had a secret yeah

promised too keep it safe, I kept it for you

And we talked and we laughed and we sat in the car and watched the world go past

I tried to dissuade you but you’d made up your mind

you were wise at seveteen

and there was nothing I could do

and there was nothing I could say

I didn’t know why you asked me

you gonna do it anyway

everybody makes mistakes

and everybody feels the same

there was nothing i could do

and there was nothing i could say

they say you’ve grown up to fast

that we acted young and foolishly

I keep all this in mind when I recall the times

I have to disagree

I’ll be here for you

and we talked and we laughed and we sat in the car and watched the world go past

I tried to dissuade you

but you know what you’re like

you were wise at seventeen

and there was nothing I could do

and there was nothing I could say

I didn’t know why you asked me

you gonna do it anyway

everybody makes mistakes

and everybody feels the same

there was nothing I could do

and there was nothing I could say

birds in the trees sing a song for me

about being young and foolish and naive

I haven’t changed that much from what I see

I was only trying to make things right

and we talked and we laughed and we sat in the car and watched the world go past

I tried to dissuade you but you made up your mind

you were wise at seventeen

there was nothing I could do

and there was nothing I could say

I didn’t know why you asked me

you gonna do it anyway

everybody makes mistakes

and everybody feels the same

there was nothing I could do

and there was nothing I could say
