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
