Seventeen

I followed you, into the night
 I said, "I will make you mine"
 All I have, is what you see
 I've loved you since I was seventeen
 Lay me down, so slow
 You'll get behind, I'll get below
 Steady hands, on the high road
 I've looked you up, you let me go
 How is this heaven?
 How could this happen?
 How is this heaven?
 You were my mission
 I followed you, into the night
 I said, "Grab it now, commit the crime"
 I held you tight, in a quiet life
 But we were blinded by all the lights
 How is this heaven?
 You were my mission
 You're all that I'd seen
 Straight from my dreams
 How is this heaven?
 How could this happen?
 How is this heaven?
 You were my mission
