There are stories in my life I wish that I could write again Maybe find a different end Didn't know who I was then Second chances are so hard to find so I'm just looking back Holding onto artifacts All my memories still intact Take me back to when the world was on my side cause you know I'd give anything just to try it one more time To feel the spark of love, the magic of my youth cause I know I'm already past my prime Well I wish that I could go on thinking things will be alright But the day has turned to night No more time to fight the fight There are people who will tell me there are better days ahead After all the words I've said They don't know my dreams are dead Take me back to when the world was on my side cause you know I'd give anything just to try it one more time To feel the spark of love, the magic of my youth cause I know I'm already past my prime A face, it lingers in my mind to represent All the years I've left behind As I hold on so hard I'm coming to resent Each tomorrow that I find Take me back to when the world was on my side cause you know I'd give anything just to try it one more time To feel the spark of love, the magic of my youth cause I know I'm already past my prime
