Back To You Lyrics


I'm sitting in my room
Thinking back on you memories pass
My head was leaned against your face
Partly on your shoulder, curving your neckI tried to clear my thoughts of stress
And let go of the day
How it began whispered your nameSoft white lights between us falling
Forming into precious flowers, chartreuse
Beautiful and floating down on us
Sparkles flying towards us dancing
All around us vanish in air, vanish in airLeft before you knew a future holding you
All you saw of me, my heart should speak for me
Then you'd understand that push away
It craves compassion and strong arms to hold herYou and me revolving, angel wings fluttering
Orange gold, sunsets bold, star filled nights
Sweet as fantasia and still a glow surrounding you
The dandelions blew our wishes to the wind
Come and bring him back againSoft white lights between us falling
Forming into precious flowers, chartreuse

Beautiful and floating down on us
Sparkles flying towards us dancing
All around us vanish in airAnd I wonder how you felt
(I was melting inside)
Opened my eyes
(Felt so bright I was blind)
The car we hadn't left
I closed the door behind
(And I wished you would take me away)You left before I waved by then it was too late
I wished on the moon I'd always remember
You and me revolving, angel wings fluttering
Orange gold, sunsets bold, star filled nights
Sweet as fantasiaSoft white lights between us falling
Forming into precious flowers, chartreuse
Beautiful and floating down on us
Sparkles flying towards us dancing
All around us vanish in air, vanish in
