Back To The Beginning

(Verse I)
The hands of time
Have made me blind
Taken away moments
That I can’t rewind
No cellphones, no internet
No worries, and no regrets
I miss those days, in so many ways

(Chorus)
I just want to go back
Back to a simpler time
Back when everything was new
Back when I had an open mind
Before all the madness, before all the sinning
I just want to go back, go back to the beginning

(Verse II)
Getting older isn’t
All it’s made to be
Everyday a ritual
Of how to make money
No excitement, no learning
No living, only burning
Memories remain, of youth slipping away

(Chorus)
I just want to go back
Back to a simpler time
Back when everything was new
Back when I had an open mind
Before all the madness, before all the sinning
I just want to go back, go back to the beginning

(Bridge)
In my sleep
It will always be a part of me
This I keep
Always near the heart of me
In my sleep
It will always be a part of me
This I keep
Always near the heart of me

(Chorus)

If It's Over

(Verse I)
The threads are torn
The fabric is frayed
All the years we spent
Promises we made

We are free to go
The flood gates have opened
Now we can breathe
But now we are broken

(Chorus I)
If it’s over, can we overcome the pain
If it’s over, can we find ourselves again
When all you want's to hold her, just to watch her slip away
If it’s over, will we ever be the same

(Verse II)
Like a two lane highway
We pass in the night
This isn’t going to be easy
Living separate lives

(Chorus II)
If it’s over, can we overcome the pain
If it’s over, can we find ourselves again
Whispers over my shoulder, calling out your name
If it’s over, will we ever be the same

(Bridge)
It’s hard to imagine you not by my side
It’s like losing an arm in the heat of battle’s cry
Time will heal all wounds or so they say
Maybe it was always meant to be this way

(Chorus II)


(Chorus I)

Magic

(Verse I)
Reflecting on
A time that I’ll never forget
Seems so long
But forever in my head
It hurts inside to know that life
Can’t be that way all the time
But it’s always on my mind
Yeah it’s always on my mind…

(Chorus)
Remember the magic that was in the air
Bringing people together from everywhere
We were as one, just having fun
Some coffee, laughter and all that it was
Under God’s creation nothing but love
For a summer we lived like we were young
Just leave me here ‘til the magic is gone

(Verse II)
At that time
I never thought it would end
But now I
Know better what to expect
A ridgeline etched in my brain
The people and places I know their names
I never should have walked away
Don’t let me walk away….

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
The innocence I found
In all the simple things
Nature in all its glory
God’s love now I believe
Good friends ‘til the end
But I cannot pretend
That I don’t miss it everyday
Always thought I’d be there to stay



(Chorus)
