|
A song to bring back memories |
|
Of who we were back then |
|
A box of notes and letters |
|
From a locked and loaded pen |
|
A message sent through airwaves |
|
To bring you back to me |
|
So tighten up your head phones |
|
And let my voice give you the lead |
|
Tell me (Please tell me) |
|
She may be (be listening) |
|
To this song that screams (The song I scream) |
|
And if I call your name will you please stand up |
|
Just drop everything, run straight to the front |
|
Run right out the door take a left to the spot |
|
Where we used to watch the bright lights shine over west little rock |
|
Baby will you please stand up |
|
And I'll be waiting here where we grew up |
|
Just gather all the notes, and the rings, and the pretty things |
|
You're the one who got, the one who got away |
|
Words to help remember |
|
What we had and what we lost |
|
Time is telling secrets |
|
They're telling me the cost |
|
Of ignoring such perfection |
|
I do what I do best |
|
Like running from commitment |
|
And making such a mess |
|
Tell me (Please tell me) |
|
She may be (be listening) |
|
To this song that screams (The song I scream) |
|
And if I call your name will you please stand up |
|
Just drop everything, run straight to the front |
|
Run right out the door take a left to the spot |
|
Where we used to watch the bright lights shine over west little rock |
|
Baby will you please stand up |
|
And I'll be waiting here where we grew up |
|
Just gather all the notes, and the rings, and the pretty things |
|
You're the one who got, the one who got away |
|
I hope you hear this and it takes away your breath |
|
Like the Polaroid we took, I wrote that I'd be yours forever (Well I'm still yours) |
|
I wrote a thousand words devoted 'bout your love |
|
I loosened my grip on us but I'm still holding your hand (I'm holding on) |
|
I hope you hear this and it takes away your breath |
|
Like the Polaroid we took, I wrote that I'd be yours forever (Well I'm still yours) |
|
I wrote a thousand words devoted 'bout your love |
|
I loosened my grip on us but I'm still holding your hand (I'm holding on) |
|
And if I call your name will you please stand up |
|
Just drop everything, run straight to the front |
|
Do you still remember the way to our spot |
|
Where we used to watch the bright lights shine over west little rock |
|
Baby will you please stand up |
|
And I'll be waiting here where we grew up |
|
Just gather all the notes, and the rings, and the pretty things |
|
You're the one who got, the one who got away |
