Lyrics
1
There?s a rule that I live by, when my love affair?s end
No need to go back there again
But lately you memory, has my mind occupied
That won?t stop as hard as I tried
Chorus
Why Does my Mind Go Back To You?
I want to stay in the present instead
Why does my mind go back to you?
Now my heart wants what?s stuck in my head
2
It can be just a fragrance, or a familiar taste of wine
That takes me right back to that time
Your memory opens flood gates, and my armor starts to crack
And that?s why I just can?t go back
3
Now that I, I can?t give in, uncomfortable in my own skin
With memories that are this tender
Lost my skill to keep apart my mind from my heart
Now I?m scared, what will this render?
