Boy of Seventeen

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Was just a boy of seventeen When you walked into my world Didn't know a country road Could lead me to my girl Somewhere between the front porch light And every star above You showed me what forever means You taught this heart to love [Chorus] Oh Paula Bo, you're my whole sky The reason mornings feel so right With all your strength and quiet grace There's no one who could take your place From here to here and back again You're my forever, my best friend [Verse 2] Two beautiful girls came from your love Our Bea and Mary too A yard full of those wagging tails And every dream came true And when the world gets heavy, girl You stand there brave and tall The bravest soul I've ever known You carry us through it all [Chorus] Oh Paula Bo, you're my whole sky The reason mornings feel so right With all your strength and quiet grace There's no one who could take your place From here to here and back again You're my forever, my best friend [Bridge] And everybody loves you so It's easy to see why That kindness is a legacy That never says goodbye [Verse 3] Remember Cancun's ocean blue The sand beneath our feet And that cheesecake you always make The finest, sweetest treat I'm looking forward, honey, now To all we've yet to do New memories still left to write Forever, me and you [Chorus] Oh Paula Bo, you're my whole sky The reason mornings feel so right With all your courage, all your grace There's no one who could take your place From here to here and back again You're my forever, my best friend [Outro] So here's my heart, it's always been From here to here and back again I love you, girl, till time is through Forever, Paula, me and you
