About Edge of Seventeen - 2016 Remaster

According to Nicks, the title came from a conversation she had with Tom Petty's first wife, Jane, about the couple's first meeting. Jane said they met "at the age of seventeen", but Jane's strong Southern accent made it sound like "edge of seventeen" to Nicks. Although Nicks had originally planned to use the title for a song about Tom and Jane Petty, the death of her uncle Jonathan and the murder of John Lennon during the same week of December 1980 inspired a new song for which Nicks used the title. .

Edge of Seventeen - 2016 Remaster Lyrics

[00:06.34] Just like the white winged dove
[00:08.89] Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
[00:11.79] Ooh, ooh, ooh
[00:16.65] Just like the white winged dove
[00:19.24] Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
[00:21.71] Ooh, baby, ooh, said, ooh
[00:25.93] And the days go by like a strand in the wind
[00:30.16] In the web that is my own, I begin again
[00:35.26] Said to my friend, baby (everything's not)
[00:38.45] Nothin' else mattered
[00:43.91] He was no more (he was no more)
[00:47.47] Than a baby then
[00:52.10] Well, he seemed broken-hearted
[00:55.50] Something within him
[01:00.27] But the moment that I first laid
[01:05.19] Eyes on him, all alone
[01:09.58] On the edge of seventeen
[01:17.52] Just like the white-winged dove (just like the white-winged dove)
[01:19.73] Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
[01:22.58] Ooh, baby, ooh, said, ooh
[01:25.76] Just like the white winged dove
[01:27.84] Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
[01:31.06] Said, ooh, baby, ooh, said, ooh
[01:35.11] Well, I went today
[01:37.47] Maybe I will go again tomorrow
[01:42.79] Yeah, yeah
[01:44.06] Well, the music there, well, it was hauntingly familiar
[01:52.55] When I see you doin' what I try to do for me
[01:56.83] With the words of a poet and a voice from a choir
[02:01.35] And a melody
[02:04.60] And nothin' else mattered
[02:09.49] Just like the white-winged dove (just like the white-winged dove)
[02:11.74] Sings a song, it sounds like she's singin'
[02:14.89] Ooh, baby, ooh, said, ooh
[02:17.93] Just like the white-winged dove
[02:20.08] Sings a song, it sounds like she's singin'
[02:22.81] Said, ooh, baby, ooh, said, ooh
[02:27.26] The clouds never expect it
[02:30.86] When it rains, but the sea
[02:35.06] Changes color, but the sea
[02:39.62] Does not change
[02:44.75] So with the slow
[02:48.14] Graceful flow of age
[02:52.52] I went forth with an age-old
[02:57.34] Desire to please
[03:01.60] On the edge of seventeen
[03:11.10] Ooh, ah
[03:27.01] Just like the white-winged dove
[03:29.62] Sings a song, it sounds like she's singin'
[03:32.13] Ooh, baby, ooh, said, ooh
[03:35.59] Just like the white-winged dove
[03:38.18] Sings a song, it sounds like she's singin'
[03:40.77] Ooh, baby, ooh, said, ooh
[03:44.75] Well, then suddenly
[03:46.90] There was no one left standin' in the hall
[03:52.04] Yeah, yeah
[03:52.95] In a flood of tears
[03:55.67] That no one really ever heard fall at all
[04:01.50] When I went searchin' for an answer
[04:03.69] Up the stairs and down the hall
[04:06.11] And not to find an answer, just to hear the call
[04:09.99] Of a night bird
[04:14.17] Singin', "Come away" (come away, come away)
[04:18.04] Just like the white-winged dove (just like the white-winged dove)
[04:20.49] Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
[04:23.09] Ooh, baby, ooh, said, ooh
[04:26.23] Just like the white-winged dove
[04:28.80] Sings a song, it sounds like she's singin'
[04:31.46] Ooh, baby, ooh, said, ooh
[04:35.59] Well, I hear you (well, I hear you) in the morning (in the morning)
[04:39.88] And I hear you (and I hear you) at nightfall (at nightfall)
[04:44.30] Sometimes to be near you
[04:48.15] Is to be unable
[04:52.01] To feel you
[04:56.61] My love
[05:00.09] I'm a few years older than you
[05:04.22] (I'm a few years older than you) my love
[05:08.72] Just like the white-winged dove (just like the white-winged dove)
[05:11.20] Sings a song, it sounds like she's singin'
[05:13.93] Ooh, baby, ooh, said, ooh
[05:17.15] Just like the white-winged dove
[05:19.51] Sings a song, it sounds like she's singin'
[05:22.23] Ooh, baby, ooh, said, ooh
[05:25.13]
