She had blue eyes The color of Amarillo skies in summer And when we'd fly Her hair would wrap around me The smell of leather and gasoline A little danger sitting next to me And when I was with her Man, I never felt so alive Sky was red, I was green World was black, Seventeen She was fast, I was slow She was all I could hold Summer flew, She was gone Little did I know my heart could go From sixty to zero We'd sit in my car Night after night Watching the stars as they flew by We'd go around the world at the speed of light And never turn the key Still I wonder where she might be And if she ever stops and thinks about me Cause God knows, I sure think about her Sky was red I was green World was black Seventeen She was fast I was slow She was all I could hold Summer flew, She was gone Little did I know my heart could go From sixty to zero Sixty to zero... We loved and laughed And loved and laughed enough to last a lifetime At least for a little while, she was mine Sky was red I was green World was black Seventeen She was fast I was slow She was all I could hold Sun was blue She was gone Little did I know my heart could go From sixty to zero
