Lyrics
Every now and then I think of you and the memories take me back in time
That old heartache starts to burn from a feeling I know will never die
I took for granted that you knew the words I could bring myself to say
I'd trade all my tomorrows if I could find my way back to yesterday
I always thought I'd get over you but it seems that I can't get you off my mind
In my heart I know too well that only you can fill this empty space inside
I guess I never knew what we had until the day you turned and walked away
I'd trade all my tomorrows if I could find my way back to yesterday
So let me sip away into my dreams of yesterday
And I'll remember the way it used to be
If I can't have you here with me at least I'll have your memory
I know you'll always be a part of me
As the years go drifting by I often wonder if I'll ever love again
I live from day to day with a broken heart that only you can mend
They say time heals all wounds but the scars never fade away
I'd trade all my tomorrows if I could find my way back to yesterday
