Retrace

Oh, how I´ve tried to get you out of my head.
And I lie broken in words I said...
Never thought I´d walk on this street again.
Standing where it all began.
Tried to forget when I left this town...
But it takes me right back when I come back around.
Retrace the steps we took on that long summer night.
I´m there by your side.
Retrace the steps we took when we met worlds away.
Counting backwards while the stars are falling.
Oh, how I find, every subtle thing screams your name.
It reminds me of places and times we´ve shared.
Couldn´t live locked in these memories.
Now i´m chained to my thoughts again.
And I tried to forget when I left this town...
But I´ll take you right back if you come back around.
Retrace the steps we took on that long summer night.
I´m there by your side.
Retrace the steps we took when we met worlds away.
Counting backwards while the stars are falling.
I need some shelter. I need some safety.
Photographs, they haunt me lately.
Chasing shadows as the evening takes me.
I´m still searching, but the pictures fading.
Retrace the steps we took on that long summer night.
I´m there by your side.
Retrace the steps we took when we met worlds away.
Counting backwards. Still counting backwards.
And no where else has ever felt like home.
And I can´t fall asleep when i´m lying here alone.
I replay your voice, it´s like you´re here.
You move the earth, but now the sky is falling.
Retrace the steps we took on that long summer night.
In my mind, I´m back by your side.
Retrace the steps we took when we met worlds away.
Counting backwards while the stars are falling
