Nineteen

Seventeen when I was high, never dreamed that I would die
Could be that I was taken for a ride

I've seen it in your eyes, and I'm not nineteen no more
I feel it when I cry, and I'm not in a dream no more
And I feel that I'm alive and your bringing me back to life
And I feel that I'm alive and your bringing me back to life

I've never seen an angel cry, I've never seen an old man die
I've never fought in any war, I've never dreamed that dream before

I've seen it in the sky, and I'm not coming down no more
I kiss it all goodbye and I know it can be no more
And I feel that I'm alive and your bringing me back to life
And I feel that I'm alive and your bringing me back to life

I've seen an angel cry, I've never seen an old man die
I've never fought in any war, I've never dreamed that dream before

I've never seen an angel cry, I've never seen an old man die
I've never fought in any war, I've never dreamed that dream before
I wanna scream I wanna cry, I wanna take you on a ride
The fun and games are all long gone, so now the rose becomes a thorn
I wanna scream I wanna cry, I wanna live don't wanna die
I know I've seen it in your eyes, I'm not nineteen but I'm still high
