"Flashback" lyrics
(originally by Alan O'Day)
I'll wake up being restless
To a clock that says it's only 3 a.m
Thinking that I touched you
When I really only dreamed of you again
Clinging to your pillow
Like a drowning man would hold on
As I feel the flood of memories rushing in
And I flashback
Back to the time you were mine
And we lived in a love song
And I flashback
Chasin' the sun, we would run
With a dream we could grow on
Everything that we touched
Turned to love
Your cigarettes are burned down to a cinder
And it brings me back to now
And I'm searching through the ashes
For the answers to the where, the why and how
Did I ask for too much lovin'
Or did you need too much freedom?
Did we both want more than Heaven would allow?
And I flashback
Back to the time you were mine
And we lived in a love song
And I flashback
Chasin' the sun, we would run
With a dream we could grow on
Flashback
Summer days, runnin' in the rain
Winter nights, spinnin' in my brain
Flashback
Flashback!
Back to the time you were mine
And we lived in a love song
And I flashback
Chasing the sun, we would run
With a dream we could grow on, yeah
Flashback!
Back to the time you were mine
And we lived in a love song
And I flashback!
Chasing the sun, we would run
With a dream we could grow on
Flashback!
To a clock that says it's only 3 a.m
Thinking that I touched you
When I really only dreamed of you again
Clinging to your pillow
Like a drowning man would hold on
As I feel the flood of memories rushing in
And I flashback
Back to the time you were mine
And we lived in a love song
And I flashback
Chasin' the sun, we would run
With a dream we could grow on
Everything that we touched
Turned to love
Your cigarettes are burned down to a cinder
And it brings me back to now
And I'm searching through the ashes
For the answers to the where, the why and how
Did I ask for too much lovin'
Or did you need too much freedom?
Did we both want more than Heaven would allow?
And I flashback
Back to the time you were mine
And we lived in a love song
And I flashback
Chasin' the sun, we would run
With a dream we could grow on
Flashback
Summer days, runnin' in the rain
Winter nights, spinnin' in my brain
Flashback
Flashback!
Back to the time you were mine
And we lived in a love song
And I flashback
Chasing the sun, we would run
With a dream we could grow on, yeah
Flashback!
Back to the time you were mine
And we lived in a love song
And I flashback!
Chasing the sun, we would run
With a dream we could grow on
Flashback!
