Favorite Quote:
Scenery is nothing more than poetry.
Love is nothing more than chemicals.
'Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.
One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


(Return to the past,
Where we'll make this last.
I'm still not over you.)
Yeah, we're two months shy of when we broke-up,
I tried moving on but I haven't had luck.
Been with all these other girls, they aren't any good,
None of them understand me like you could.
You had the beauty, the smarts, and the unique style,
The thing I loved the most was your authentic smile.
Knowing all this knowledge I know today,
I would've said those three words to make you stay.
But you disappeared, off the grid, completely left,
I forgot to mention my heart is what you kept.
So let's not pretend and make this for real,
Way deep inside, we both know how we feel.
Both of us know we are meant to be,
To make that happen, we have to believe.
Return to the past,
Where we'll make this last.
I'm still not over you.
Picture your face next to mine,
Take this image as a sign.
It's not too late to have a redo.
I hold your key and you hold my heart,
Meaning we can't be apart.
Because you'll never be able to give it away,
Unless you return to the past with me today.
Oh, soon it'll be a year since we last spoke in person,
We cut off all contact for absolutely no reason.
Hey, I can still remember exactly how your voice goes,
The soft pitch and how it flows.
A few things have been resurfacing to my mind,
How could I let myself be so blind?
When I had you I never should've let you escape,
My heart is still damaged and I can't remove the scrape.
Bleeding on the inside but fine on the out,
It's a struggle to remember what we fought about.
It only took a few minutes and then came the argument,
Spilling out lines I don't think either of us meant.
Yeah, it'll take months to restore us back to the point we were at,
I'm willing sacrifice to have you back.
Return to the past,
Where we'll make this last.
I'm still not over you.
Picture your face next to mine,
Take this image as a sign.
It's not too late to have a redo.
I hold your key and you hold my heart,
Meaning we can't be apart.
Because you'll never be able to give it away,
Unless you return to the past with me today.
What do you think?
Answer me with one blink.
Don't let me fall to sink,
This is our moment to re-link.
Heart, mind, and soul all in sync,
I know you know when you wink.
And as my heart is about to shrink,
Save me with your words of ink.
Return to the past,
Where we'll make this last.
I'm still not over you.
Picture your face next to mine,
Take this image as a sign.
It's not too late to have a redo.
I hold your key and you hold my heart,
Meaning we can't be apart.
Because you'll never be able to give it away,
Unless you return to the past with me today.
