Young & Foolish

I remember sitting back 'Cause you said you had something to say You told me that you had a secret, yeah yeah Promised to keep it safe, I kept it for you And we talked and we laughed and we sat in the car Watched the world go past I tried to dissuade you but you made up your mind You were wise at 17 And there was nothing I could do And there was nothing I could say I didn't know why you asked me You're gonna do it anyway Everybody makes mistakes (Ooh) And everybody feels the same There was nothing I could do And there was nothing I could say They said we grown up too fast That we acted young and foolishly I keep all this in mind when I recall the time I have to disagree and be here for you Ooh, and we talked and laughed And we sat in the park and watched the world go past I tried to dissuade you but you know what you're like You were wise at 17 And there was nothing I could do And there was nothing I could say I didn't know why you asked me You're gonna do it anyway Everybody makes mistakes (Ooh) And everybody feels the same There was nothing I could do And there was nothing I could say Birds in the tree 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 there was nothing I could do And there was nothing I could say I didn't know why you asked me You're gonna do it anyway Everybody makes mistakes (Ooh) And everybody feels the same There was nothing I could do And there was nothing I could say And there was nothing I could do And there was nothing I could say I didn't know why you asked me You're gonna do it anyway Everybody makes mistakes (Ooh) And everybody feels the same There was nothing I could do And there was nothing I could say
