| The story's soundtrack, so far. Some of these songs were released during
the summer of 1997, when the story took place. Those that weren't envoke
the mood and atmosphere of the story. More tracks coming soon.
"Seventeen" – Tim McGraw
Backseat of her daddy's car
I was trying not to go too far
Kept thinking about the words the preacherman said
Lightnin' flashed across the sky
I saw love in a young girl's eyes
And that's a look you never forget
Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
Don't it just fly by wild and free
Goin any way the wind blew, baby
Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams
Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
And standing on the edge of everything
Seventeen
Legs hangin' off the Bayou Bridge
Feedin' fish potato chips
And talkin' about the mysteries of the universe
Yeah, the world was somewhere else
We had the Summer all to ourselves
And the stars went off like fireworks
Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
Don't it just fly by wild and free
Goin any way the wind blew, baby
Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams
Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
And standing on the edge of everything
Seventeen
Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
Don't it just fly by wild and free
Goin any way the wind blew, baby
Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams
Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
And standing on the edge of everything
Seventeen
“17” – Mandy Moore
Some people tell me, that you’re not my kind
And I believe them, but I can’t get you off my mind
Some people tell me that I should stay away
Maybe I will…some other day
[Bridge] ‘Cause it feels right
And it feels good
And I don’t always do what I should
And I know what makes me happy
And in my heart you are it exactly
[Chorus] I don’t wanna do right, I just want you tonight
Not just only in my dreams
Save my best behavior, for a little later
‘Cause I’m only 17
Think I made my mind up, I got time to grow up
Face responsibility
Livin’ in the moment
Keepin’ my heart open
While I’m only 17 (Only 17…)
I’ll learn my lessons, and I’ll make mistakes
And if I get burned (get burned), it’ll be my heart to break
It isn’t easy, hearing what they say
Sometimes you’ve got to take a leap of faith
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
Anyone, who’s ever been in love
Has got to know
What it means to have a dream
And no one can say anything
To change my mind, no not this time
[Chorus]
Baby, got time to grow up…
…to face responsibility…
…hopin’…open…
‘Cause I’m only 17…
"Strawberry Wine" by Deana Carter
He was working through college on my grandpa's farm
I was thirsting for knowledge and he had a car
I was caught somewhere between a woman and a child
When one restless summer we found love growing wild
On the banks of the river on a well beaten path
Funny how those memories they last
Like strawberry wine and seventeen
The hot July moon saw everything
My first taste of love oh bittersweet
Green on the vine
Like strawberry wine
I still remember when thirty was old
My biggest fear was September when he had to go
A few cards and letters and one long distance call
We drifted away like the leaves in the fall
But year after year I come back to this place
Just to remember the taste
Of strawberry wine and seventeen
The hot July moon saw everything
My first taste of love oh bittersweet
Green on the vine
Like strawberry wine
The fields have grown over now
Years since they've seen a plow
There's nothing time hasn't touched
Is it really him or the loss of my innocence
I've been missing so much
Like strawberry wine and seventeen
The hot July moon saw everything
My first taste of love oh bittersweet
Green on the vine
Like strawberry wine
"I'm Not a Girl... Not Yet a Woman" by Britney Spears
I used to think
I had the answers to everything.
But now I know
That life doesn't always
Go my way.
Feels like I'm caught in the middle
That's when I realize
(chorus)
I'm not a girl...
Not yet a woman...
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between.
I'm not a girl
There is no need to protect me.
It's time that I
Learn to face up to this
On my own.
I've seen so much more than you know now
So don't tell me to shut
My eyes
(chorus)
I'm not a girl...
Not yet a woman...
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between.
I'm not a girl
But if you look at me closely
You will see it in my eyes
This girl would always find
Her way...
(chorus)
I'm not a girl don't tell me what to believe
I'm just trying to find the woman in me
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl...
Not yet a woman... no no
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl... oooh
Not yet a woman.
"Crash" by Dave Matthews Band
You've got your ball, you've got your chain
Tied to me tight, tie me up again
Who's got their claws in you my friend?
Into your heart I'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul, sweet you rock
And sweet you roll
Lost for you I'm so lost for you
You come crash into me
And I come into you
I come into you
In a boy's dream
In a boy's dream
Touch your lips just so I know
In your eyes, love, it glows so
I'm bare-boned and crazy for you
When you come crash into me, baby
And I come into you
In a boy's dream
In a boy's dream
If I've gone overboard
Then I'm begging you
To forgive me
In my haste
When I'm holding you so girl
Close to me
Oh and you come crash into me, baby
And I come into you
Hike up your skirt a little more
And show the world to me
Hike up your skirt a little more
And show your world to me
In a boy's dream, in a boy's dream
Oh I watch you there
Through the window
And I stare at you
You wear nothing but you
Wear it so well
Tied up and twisted
The way I'd like to be
For you, for me, come crash into me
Crash into me
Crash into me
You know, I'm the king of the castle
You're the dirty rascal, crash into me
Please crash into me, baby
Oh, no no no
Yes, I see the waves
Come and crash into me.
See the waves come and crash into me.
Crash into me
Mmmbop
You have so many relationships in this life
Only one or two will last
You're going through all this pain and strife
Then you turn your back and they're gone so fast
And they're gone so fast
So hold on the ones who really care
In the end they'll be the only ones there
When you get old and start losing your hair
Can you tell me who will still care
Can you tell me who will still care
Mmm bop, ba duba dop
Ba du bop, ba duba dop
Ba du bop, ba duba dop
Ba du
Mmm bop, ba duba dop
Ba du bop, Ba du dop
Ba du bop, Ba du dop
Ba du
Plant a seed, plant a flower, plant a rose
You can plant any one of those
Keep planting to find out which one grows
It's a secret no one knows
It's a secret no one knows
(Repeat Chorus)
In an mmm bop they're gone. In an mmm bop they're not there.
In an mmm bop they're gone. In an mmm bop they're not there.
Until you lose your hair. But you don't care.
(Repeat Chorus)
Can you tell me? You say you can but you don't know.
Can you tell me which flower's going to grow?
Can you tell me if it's going to be a daisy or a rose?
Can you tell me which flower's going to grow?
Can you tell me? You say you can but you don't know.
