I was only seventeen
when she looked at me that way
seems like yesterday

I was only foolin' round
but she stole my heart away
I never been the same

I have this strangest feeling
like a raging fire it burns
she left i cried for weeks and
I can't forget her
or the lesson that I learned

* Love changes changes everything
love makes you fly, it can break your wings
love changes changes everything
love makes the rules, from fools to kings
love changes, love changes everything

Then the year went rollin' by
I grew up and moved away
Had to earn my pay
Found another lover then
but my heart is sad to say
it only ended up the same way
