[Intro]
She has no fear of failure
She's not bent with broken dreams
For the future's just beginning
When you're always seventeen
[Verse 1]
It was 1961 when we went to Washington
She put her arms around me and said, "Camelot's begun"
We listened to his visions of how our land should be
We gave him our hearts and minds to send across the sea
[Verse 2]
1963, white and black upon the land
She brought me to the monuments and made us all join hands
And scarcely six months later she held me through the night
When we heard of what had happened in that brutal Dallas light
[Chorus]
Oh, she is always seventeen
She has a dream that she will lend us
And a love that we can borrow
There is so much joy inside her
She will even share our sorrow
She's our past, our present
And our promise of tomorrow
Oh, truly she's the only hope I've seen
And she is always seventeen
She has no fear of failure
She's not bent with broken dreams
For the future's just beginning
When you're always seventeen
[Verse 1]
It was 1961 when we went to Washington
She put her arms around me and said, "Camelot's begun"
We listened to his visions of how our land should be
We gave him our hearts and minds to send across the sea

1963, white and black upon the land
She brought me to the monuments and made us all join hands
And scarcely six months later she held me through the night
When we heard of what had happened in that brutal Dallas light
[Chorus]
Oh, she is always seventeen
She has a dream that she will lend us
And a love that we can borrow
There is so much joy inside her
She will even share our sorrow
She's our past, our present
And our promise of tomorrow
Oh, truly she's the only hope I've seen
And she is always seventeen
