Oh, oh, oh, I
I was a city boy
Right into danger's where I'd always run
A boy who had his fun
But I wouldn't have done
All the things that I have done
If I knew one day you'd come
Nah, baby (nah, baby), nah, baby (nah, baby)
Oh, oh, oh, I
I know it breaks your heart
To picture the only one you wanna love
In someone else's arms
But I wouldn't have done
All the things that I have done
If I knew one day you'd come
Nah, baby (nah, baby), nah, baby (nah, baby)
Oh, baby, please, let's leave the past behind us, behind us
So that we can go where love will find us, yeah, will find us
I know most girls would leave me
But I know that you'll believe me
Baby I, I wish we were 17
So I could give you all the innocence
That you give to me
No, I wouldn't have done
All the things that I've done
If I knew one day you'd come
If I knew one day you'd come
