I wake up to a cold sweat to a clock that says it's only 3AM.
Thinking that I felt you, when I really only dreamed of you again.
I'm clingin' to your pillow, like a dreamin' man would hold on, when I feel the flood of memories rushin' in.

And I flashback...Aww back to the time you were mine and we lived in a love song.
And I flashback...Aww chasin' the sun we would run with a dream we could grow on.
Everything that we touched...turned to love.

My cigarette has burned down, to my fingers, and it brings me back to now.
And I'm searchin' through the ashes, for the answers to the where, the why and how.
Did I ask for too much lovin', or did you need too much freedom? Did we both want more than heaven would allow?

And I flashback...Aww back to the time you were mine and we lived in a love song.
Oh I flashback...Aww chasin' the sun we would run with a dream we could grow on.
Mmmmmm...

(BACKGROUND SINGERS)
Summer day...runnin' in the rain.
Winter night...thinnin' in my brain.

Flashback...Aww back to the time you were mine and we lived in a love song.
Oh I flashback...Aww chasin' the sun we would run with a dream we could grow on.
Everything that we touched...turned to love.

(BACKGROUND SINGERS)
Flashback...Summer day...runnin' in the rain.
Flashback...Winter night...thinnin' in my brain.
Flashback...Summer day, winter night...
Flashback...Summer day, winter night...
Flashback...Summer day, winter night...
Flashback...Summer day, winter night...
