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.
I CAN RECALL FROM A EARLIER TIME AND PLACE
WE ONCE STOOD HERE KNOWING EXACTLY WHO WE WERE
SAME TWO PEOPLE THREE YEARS LATER
