My struggle
Open my eyes to see a new day
Hoping it will be a lighter shade of gray
Missing the joy, the love that I lost
Want it back at any cost.
Looking back at a road so long
Looking for the place where we went wrong
Time went by I didn't see
It went away from you and me
I'm scared, lonely, empty inside
My heart my soul swept away by the tide
Want it back! All that made me smile
Want it back, if only for a while.
Roll out of bed, scratching my head wish I was dead
Tryin' to remember all that was said
Tryin' to figure out, was it you was it me?
Were we just a combination that could never be
Don't wanna accept the bitter taste of defeat
So I'll keep on marching to my own beat
The beat of my heart fueled by desire
It's a precarious march on a high wire
But I'm willing to risk it, don't care if I fall
If I can't have us back I'd rather loose it all
Want it back! All that made me smile
Want it back, if only for a while.
I know there are things we don't wanna see
That drove a wedge between you and me
We can't undo it or wish it away
But if we fight together maybe some day
We can stand side by side on happiness hill
Look back at our lives, say we did God's will
We stood up for love the gift from above
Made our relationship soar like a white dove
Above all the filth that satan delivers
Destruction addiction shakes and shivers
Want it back! All that made me smile
Want it back, if only for a while.
