Lyrics
Through the door and up the stairs,
Like a ghost from another life
Down the hall and past your room I'm overcome
With the feeling of an era lost in time
Of sleepovers with you lying in my arms,
And nights that we'd wrestle to the floor
Remembering the way you made me feel,
Like I'd found something that I had lost before
Looking back it seems close enough to make it real again
But chasing the past is a game that we can never win
But I miss you and the times in my mind I still see
Thinking through the pages of my bittersweet memories
Someone once told me
The older you get, the faster it goes by
And I swear I cursed out loud the day I found out
That it didn't take long before they were right
Looking back it seems close enough to make it real again
But chasing the past is a game that we can never win
But I miss you and the times in my mind I still see
Thinking through the pages of my bittersweet memories
Well I guess everything has its place in time
The hands keep turning as they should
And I think sometimes not knowing what you have
Is the very thing that makes it so good
Looking back it seems close enough to make it real again
But chasing the past is a game that we can never win
But I miss you and the times in my mind I still see
Thinking through the pages of my bittersweet memories
Thinking through the pages of my bittersweet memories
