    SUMMERS LANE

    STARING OUT ONTO THIS LAKE
    I CAN RECALL FROM A EARLIER TIME AND PLACE
    WE ONCE STOOD HERE KNOWING EXACTLY WHO WE WERE
    SAME TWO PEOPLE THREE YEARS LATER
    IT FEELS AS IF I'M LOOKING AT A STRANGER
    I WATCHED OUR LOVE GROW
    DURING THE SUMMER SPENT OUT BY THE LAKE
    I NEVER ONCE THOUGHT THAT WE WOULD END UP THIS WAY
    HOW DID IT GET SO OUT OF CONTROL?
    WHERE DID OUR LOVE GO?
    SUMMERS LANE WAS THE STREET WHERE
    WE'D MEET
    AND HERE WE ARE AGAIN
    LOOKING AT EACH OTHER
    KNOWING WE WERE ONCE MORE THEN JUST FRIENDS
    STORIES WE SHARE ABOUT THE PAST FOUR MONTHS
    TRYING TO REMEMBER WHERE IT WENT WRONG
    ALL I SEE IS YOUR FACE IN THE SUNLIGHT
    IT'S LIKE MY LOVE FOR YOU REMAINED
    IT REMAINED ALL ALONG
    THERE IS NO DENYING
    THE HONEST TRUTH
    WE SPENT THE SUMMER APART
    TO GO AFTER OUR DIFFERENT DREAMS
    NEVER KNOWING FOUR MONTHS LATER WE'D FIND OUT
    THAT WE BOTH HAD EXACTLY WHAT WE'D NEED
    HOW DO WE START OVER AGAIN
    WHEN THE BAD MEMORIES REMAIN
    I WANT TO WALK AWAY FROM YOU
    BUT I FEEL LIKE I'M STUCK BY A BALL AND CHAIN.
    WITH CAUTION I PROCEED
    MAYBE THIS TIME WE CAN GET IT RIGHT
    I PRAY TO GOD THAT THIS TIME IT WILL BE WORTH THE FIGHT.
    IN YOUR ARMS IS WHERE I BELONG
    TO BE LOVED BY YOU IS ALL I NEED
    I'M SORRY FOR WHAT I BECAME DURING OUR SUMMER
    THAT WAS SPENT IN VAIN.
    THEY SAY IF YOU LOVE SOMETHING YOU LET IT GO
    SO WE SET OUR LOVE FREE
    COME TO FIND OUT
    YOUR THE ONLY ONE FOR ME.
