Sweet 17 in summertime Drunk on elderberry wine Laughing in the cornfields And taking our sweet time The world was ours together And all the things we had Were cast up in the future baby How could things turn out bad? Now i ain't waiting for Those days to return You showed me what love was I had such a lot to learn Hey baby I never knew a love so fine (when you were mine) Sweet darling When you were mine (when you were mine) 7 days a week 365 a year We tripped the wild fantastic edge The truth was always clear They could never tame our wild hearts Or stop us making love We were so inseparable We could never get enough And it seems like only yesterday You made my world turn And these days i think about ya The fire still burns Hey baby I never knew a better time (when you were mine) Sweet darling When you were mine (when you were mine) Alright Everything we had was so complete And all our young hearts wanted was to be swept off our feet Yeah When you were mine In summertime I know there's no sense in looking back But everytime i think of it baby I just have to laugh Yeah well maybe just sometimes On my own Looking at my watch and thinking how time's flown Come back baby Like summer time And we can break a bottle of that elderberry wine Hey baby I never knew a better time (when you were mine) Sweet darling yeah When you were mine (when you were mine) Hey darling Come back to me one more time (when you were mine) Sweet darling When you were mine (when you were mine) Everything was good Everything was fine When you were mine (when you were mine) When you were mine baby (when you were mine) Come back just like summertime In the summertime
