Lyrics
Only 17
lyric Dawn Sinclair
Don't tell me I should grow up, put my dreams away
You know I'm getting sick and tired of your preaching
You contradict yourself by every word you say
Some things you cannot teach me
Sometimes you cannot reach me
Bridge
Please, let me decide what is wrong or right for me
I need to find who I am inside
Chorus
I, I, I, Ia€™m only seventeen
Still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world
I, I, Ia€™m only seventeen
Still chasing dreams
I wanna I wanna conquer the world
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh ahhhhhhhhhhh
Don't want to make my way by walking in your footprints
I need to weave my dreams into a life that's more my style
You think you can control me with your helpful hints
Don't want to be a lady
But I am not your baby
Bridge
I'm spreading my wings
Learning how to fly.
It's you who always says
"You're big as your dreams are"
"as big as your dreams are"
Chorus
I, I, I, I.m only seventeen
Still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world
I, I, I.m only seventeen
Still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world
Bridge:
Don't tell me what you think I ought to think
Then ask me to agree
You don't have the right to choose my drink
Or tell me who to see
I'm old enough to make my own mistakes
Whatever they may be
I'm doing just whatever it takes
I'm single and I'm free
Instrumental
Only 17,
I'm single and I'm free
Ia€™m 17,
Chorus
I, I, I, I.m only seventeen
Still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world
I, I, I, I.m only seventeen
Still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world
I, I, I, I.m only seventeen
Still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world
Every day I wake up to the possibility
This will be the day my life will start and I will be discovered
You want me to be act the part of someone I cant be
Ia€™m not ready for commitment, I dona€™t need a full time lover...
bridge1
No...Let me stand alone...trying on my dreams
Oh...I can stand alone...chasing all my dreams
chorus
I, I, I, I, Ia€™m only seventeen
still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world
I, I, I, I, Ia€™m only seventeen
still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world
V2
When we met, I thought youa€™d seen a star potentially
Helping me to find the greatness I know lives somewhere inside me
But instead to you I am a love you wona€™t set free
You forget that my life hasna€™t really started yet, please let me be
bridge1
....Let me stand alone...trying on my dreams
Oh...I can stand alone...chasing all my dreams
chorus
I, I, I, I, Ia€™m only seventeen
still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world
I, I, I, I, Ia€™m only seventeen
still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world

bridge 2
You may be wiser in the worldly ways of love ita€™s true...oh yeah
But Ia€™m not ready yet to wanna be tied down to one like you
chorus
I, I, I, I, Ia€™m only seventeen
still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world
I, I, I, I, Ia€™m only seventeen
still chasing dreams
I wanna, I wanna conquer the world
