Lyrics
Mit 17 hat man noch Träume
Da wachsen noch alle Bäume
In den Himmel der Liebe
Mit 17 kann man noch hoffen
Da sind die Wege noch offen
In den Himmel der Liebe
Doch mit den Jahren wird man erfahren
Dass mancher der Träume zerrannen
Doch wenn man jung ist, so herrlich jung ist
Wer denkt, ja, wer denkt schon daran?
Mit 17 hat man noch Träume
Da wachsen noch alle Bäume
In den Himmel der Liebe
Junge Leute fragen nicht, was man darf und kann
Junge Leute sehen die Welt mit eigenen Augen an
Und ist diese Welt auch oft fern der Wirklichkeit
Wo ist der, der ihnen nicht lächelnd das verzeiht?
Mit 17 hat man noch Träume
Da wachsen noch alle Bäume
In den Himmel der Liebe
Mit 17 hat man noch Träume
Da wachsen noch alle Bäume
In den Himmel der Liebe
All meine Träume
Träume der Liebe
