And I'd found the doors all locked to me no matter where I turn
I can't even build new mem'ries when your mem'ry's here to stay
And I cannot face the future for our past is in my way
I can't go out with someone else and do the things we'd do
And I can't even look ahead while looking back at you
I'm torn between tomorrow and the scars of yesterday
And I cannot face the future for our past is in my way
[ steel ]
I was so much stronger yesterday when you walked by my side
But I'm weaker for you left me here and my heart within me dies
What I was speak so much louder than what I am today
And I cannot face the future for our past is in my way
Our past is always present where my future is concerned And I'd found the doors all locked to me no matter where I turn I can't even build new mem'ries when your mem'ry's here to stay And I cannot face the future for our past is in my way I can't go out with someone else and do the things we'd do And I can't even look ahead while looking back at you I'm torn between tomorrow and the scars of yesterday And I cannot face the future for our past is in my way [ steel ] I was so much stronger yesterday when you walked by my side But I'm weaker for you left me here and my heart within me dies What I was speak so much louder than what I am today And I cannot face the future for our past is in my way Explain Request ×
