Corinne Bailey Rae - Young & Foolish lyrics

I remember sitting back 'cause you said you had something to say You told me that you had a secret, yeah yeah Promised to keep it safe I kept it for you And we talked and we laughed and we sat in the car; watched the world go past I tried to dissuade you but you made up your mind You were wise at 17 And there was nothing I could do and there was nothing I could say I didn't know why you asked me, you're gonna do it anyway Everybody makes mistakes (ooh) and everybody feels the same There was nothing I could do and there was nothing I could say They said we grown up too fast, that we acted young and foolishly I keep all this in mind when I recall the time I have to disagree, and be here for you Oooh, and we talked and laughed and we sat in the park and watched the world go past I tried to dissuade you but you know what you're like You were wise at 17 And there was nothing I could do and there was nothing I could say I didn't know why you asked me, you're gonna do it anyway Everybody makes mistakes (ooh) and everybody feels the same There was nothing I could do and there was nothing I could say Birds in the tree sing a song for me About being young and foolish and naive I haven't changed that much from what I see I was only trying to make things right And there was nothing I could do and there was nothing I could say I didn't know why you asked me, you're gonna do it anyway Everybody makes mistakes (ooh) and everybody feels the same There was nothing I could do and there was nothing I could say And there was nothing I could do and there was nothing I could say I didn't know why you asked me, you're gonna do it anyway Everybody makes mistakes (ooh) and everybody feels the same There was nothing I could do and there was nothing I could say...
