She was only seventeen and he was one year more

She loved him with all her heart, and he the girl adored

But all their friends believed they were too young to know the score

Cause she was only seventeen and he was one year more



Are they old enough to know if love will last a life?

Isn't he too young to be a husband, her a wife?

Within the past I bet it's happened more than once before

When someone else was seventeen and another one year more



Do we have the right to question love that seems so strong?

As long as God has no objection, there can be no wrong



Let us be the first to wish them all the very best

Let us hope their love is strong enough to meet the test

Cause like I say, I bet it's happened more than once before

When someone else was seventeen and another one year more
