You, only you, you've pasted emotions in my mind, and want to try to keep everything alive. You, you've never trusted in your heart but I appreciate you simply as you are. as you are, but think that time never goes back. There is a place, a place for secrets feel your heart lookin' back with no regrets It doesn't matter if it's wrong or right.
