Led Zeppelin Laser Light Show

Do you remember when we went to the variety show
When you and I were just seventeen
It was the kind of thing we'd do for lack of someplace to go
We always sort of had our own scene
Holding your hand felt so electric
Everything was new
And I had never kissed someone but the first time we made out
I figured out exactly what to do

There was a class trip in the spring
We were so young and in love
And twenty minutes late for the bus
We kept a hundred people waiting while we went and had lunch
Yet no one really got pissed at us
We always had that thing
People just seemed to root for me and you
And I will never quite get over what you meant in my life
And all the crazy shit we used to do

Said I will never quite get over what you meant in my life
And all the crazy shit we used to do

Led Zeppelin laser light show
And the midnight show of Rocky Horror when you're just seventeen
You care to not know, you care to don't go back
For me nostalgia's just the standard routine
And of all the great things known to humankind
Ain't too much can blow your mind
Quite like the laser light show
And the midnight show of Rocky Horror when you're just seventeen

Can't really say I've lost my love for you
Can't I take back all that I put you through
Oh

I think of all the reasons why we stayed
I didn't want this to die
I didn't want this to die
I woke up just in time to see it fade
Oh

But I remember when we went to the variety show
When you and I were just seventeen
It is the kind of thing I think of in those moments alone
You probably know what I mean
I'd gladly give up everything I know

Just leave me the Led Zeppelin laser light show
And the midnight show of Rocky Horror when you're just seventeen
You care to not know, you care to don't go back
For me nostalgia's just the normal routine
And of all the great things known to humankind
Ain't too much can blow your mind
Quite like the laser light show
And the midnight show
And we will never be again seventeen
