A Piece Of Me

Long rides home on these country side roads,
with you by my side we'd never grow old.
Day turns to night as we gaze up at the stars.
No one could wake us from this perfect dream of ours
and when I hear our song,
a piece of me is gone.
Like another night when the world was in my hand
but when morning breaks its only another end.
Again tonight I'll push all my dreams away,
and save you this letter for another day...another day.
Locked up my heart and I threw away the key.
So many promises that she could never keep
and when we were a thousand miles apart
I still saved a place for you inside my heart.
And when I hear our song, a piece of me is gone.
Like another night when the world was in my hand
but when morning breaks its only another end.
Again tonight I'll push all my dreams away,
and save you this letter for another day.
Its snowing now but I'm back here on our beach,
those summer nights are so out of reach.
Once upon a time we wrote our names in this sand.
Summer fades, life was so different then.
Like another night when the world was in my hand
but when morning breaks its only another end.
Again tonight I'll push all my dreams away,
and save you this letter for another day.
I lost myself in pictures of the way it used to be,
in the way she held me close and the dreams,
the dreams we used to dream.
