[Verse 1]
Sticky sleeves and a striped cheek
Never forget my teenage sin
House parties and a stolen car
I sat at Fyrisån and killed time
Spin the bottle, I have never
Truth or dare
What do you want to know about me? Just ask
I tell you anything
[Chorus]
It was 17 years
17 years in the city
Where I grew up and that
Do you notice how fast it goes?
And I was 17 years
Didn't want to be the one who was left
[Verse 2]
I have worn out so many shoes
In a city where no one lives anymore
Worked at my brother's restaurant
My friends wanted to be like him
Valborgs chaos on Stora Torget
Rackarberget 95
We lived at the top, what more do you want to know?
I tell you anything
[Chorus]
It was 17 years
17 years in the city
Where I grew up and that
Do you notice how fast it goes?
And I was 17 years
Didn't want to be the one who was left
[Refrain]
I still remember it today, a water festival
Remember that no one wanted to go home
I was going abroad, I changed my last name
And I became one of those who never came home
[Chorus]
Since I was 17 years
17 years in the city
Where I grew up and that
Do you notice how fast it goes?
And I was 17 years
Didn't want to be the one who was left
[Outro]
I didn't want to be the one (I didn't want to be the one)
I didn't want to be the one who was left
I didn't want to be the one who was left
