It does bring back memories of a young man, who at the wee young age of 19, I refer in my memory as Dysfunctional Mike for assorted reasons I won't embarrass myself about, but it involved an evening at the drive-in and not much else that happened that night while watching a reshowing of "A Fish Called Wanda".
Anyway, he lives as the one of the few males in my history who decided to serenade me (hey, at least he could sing well). It was 1989 and I was 17 and the song was the not-so-good one by Winger of the same name. He was still dumped however. Poor lad.
Seventeen
I saw sparks fly, from the corner of my eye And when I turned, it was love at first sight I said please excuse me, I didn't catch your name Oh it'd be a shame not to see you again And just when I thought she was comin' to my door She whispered sweet and brought me to the floor, she said I'm only seventeen, but I'll show you love like you've never seen She's only seventeen, daddy says she's too young, but she's old enough for me Come to my place, we can talk it over, oh everything going down in your head She said take it easy, I need some time, time to work it out, to make you mine And just when I thought she was comin' to my door She whispered sweet and brought me to the floor, she said I'm only seventeen, you ain't seen love, ain't seen nothing like me She's only seventeen, seventeen (Solo) Such a bad girl, loves to work me overtime Feels good (ha), dancin' close to the borderline She's a magic mountain, she's a leather glove Oh she's my soul, it must be love She's only seventeen, still she gives me love, like I've never seen She's only seventeen, daddy says she's too young, but she's old enough for me She's everything I need, daddy says she's too young But she's old enough, old enough for me
