Luyện nghe bài hát At Seventeen

I leaned the at seventeen
That love was meant for queens
And high school with clear-skinned smiles
Who married young and retired

The valentines I never
The Friday night of youth
Were on one more beautiful

Inventing lovers on the

Who called to say, "Come with me"
And murmured vague

And the relationed hometown queen
Marries into what she
With a guarantee of
And haven for the

The world was younger today
When dreams were all they for free
To duckling girls like me

We all the game and when we dare
To ourselves at solitaire
lovers on the phone
Repenting other unknown

They call and say, "Come on, with me"
And murmur obscenities
At ugly girls like me at
