We used to run through summer fields, Chasing dreams, just you and me. Never thought I'd feel this way, But now it's clear, I can't deny. Seventeen, you're shining bright, Holding hands with someone new. I should smile, I should be glad, But deep inside, I'm breaking too. I thought you were just my friend, But my heart says it's pretend. I hide my love, I hold it in, Wishing you the best with him. I hear you laugh, it feels so right, Yet somehow it don't feel the same. Every time you say his name, My chest gets tight, my heart’s in flames. Seventeen, you're shining bright, Holding hands with someone new. I should smile, I should be glad, But deep inside, I'm breaking too. I thought you were just my friend, But my heart says it's pretend. I hide my love, I hold it in, Wishing you the best with him. If I had known, if I had seen, Maybe things would change. But now it's late, I’ll walk away, Letting go through silent pain. I thought you were just my friend, But my heart says it's pretend. I hide my love, I hold it in, Wishing you the best with him. So I'll stand here in the rain, Hiding tears behind a grin. Loving you in secret ways, Hoping he will keep you safe.
