Memories

Memories take over my mind
and takes me back to that time
The summer, the sun, the heat
The day when my life felt complete

I close my eyes, I see your smile
I hear your laughter all the while
I feel your arms holding on to me
I smell your skin right next to me

I tried to let my heart take a leap
You could hold it tight and make it yours to keep
So deep in love, deep inside
and fast like on a roller coaster ride

You loved me right, I loved you wrong
I didn't see where you belonged
You held me close, I pushed away
If only I saw it your way

How could I have been so blind
I thought that it was all in my mind
But you were there in front of me
But my stubborn heart wouldn't let me see

You were the one that I'd need
And one your heart my soul should feed
But that night I let you walk
Not listening when you'd try to talk

The fault is mine, I'm to blame
I've never been good at this loving game
Now this night I've reminisce
And thought of all the love I've missed

My memories control my mind
And take me back to that sweet time
