This is dedicated to Holly and Sam.

lyrics

17, just a daydream
a moments gone, fair fallen storms
One day hello, the next goodbye
How do I survive the tide

You know I want to help you
Solve the problems, pay your debts
but its not that simple, you say to me,
You don't want these shoes.

And you tell me:
"Please stop, trust, understand
I may just be a girl not quite a woman
but I feel I can't cope; I fear there's no hope,
I wrote these words down to give you warning tomorrow it all might change
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I left you this way."

Today I ponder what's next, how to feel this emptiness
cause I see faces that remind me of you.
And they tell me the darkness, oh it ain't through,
I walk halls where you used to walk,
think back on how you knew

And you tell me:
"Please stop, trust, understand
I may just be a boy not quite a man
but I feel I can't cope; I fear there's no hope,
I wrote these words down to give you warning tomorrow it all might change
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I left you this way."

17, just a daydream, I left you this way.
