It all looked so good in your memory But it didn’t taste as sweet as it was meant to be How did I end up caught between two cities? Heaven knows that now I’m so out of touch Lost in time need to find, wanna feel that rush Still hear your whisper in my ear Like you did before [Chorus:] Oh, I heard you didn't get what you came for, baby I heard it wasn't all you thought it would be Time is a healer, but sometimes, baby Some things are sweeter in history, Sweeter in history Lord knows I tried but I can’t let go Stuck hanging on to something that we used to know You never wake the dead while they’re sleeping You show up thinking we can pick up where we left before I hate to tell you this but only ghosts can walk through walls Wishful thinking never took you where you need to go [repeat chorus] Oh there’s a reason why I locked you away Because I’m trying to keep the memory the same Too good to be true, I knew I don’t know what you're hoping to find Oh, did you think that I'd just fall into line With your perfect design And everything would just be how it used to be? Sweeter in history [x4]
