    Flashback

    It’s like I’ve been in this exact situation before
    I’ve climbed these stairs; I’ve knocked on this door
    Then how is it that all of this seems so new
    If this is a life of lies then how is it so true
    Same person, same place, and the same complication
    Same love, same problem, and the same infatuation
    Time never goes backwards; not for any reason
    Once its summer you know that fall’s the next season
    But love is not normal; it follows its own clock
    A clock that’s slow to tick and never seems to tock
    More often then not it’s not that hard to find
    That love can speed up, stop, and make time rewind
    So now I’m back at the place where it all happens
    The love, the pain, the anger, and the laughing
    I’m back once asking to say I’m sorry for my actions
    To beg on bended knee for you to quit packing
    Back again to try to make your scarred heart forgive
    To convince you that I need you as much as the kids
    Once again you’ll break down and fall crying in my lap
    And we’ll restart our life; a life of a flashback

    my favorite line "But love is not normal; it follows its own clock A clock that’s slow to tick and never seems to tock" just love it! this reminds me of all the times that my ex wife and i broke up... thanks for sharing!

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
