Past the Past

She told me she loved me
That quiet summer night
out on this front porch
Beneath the soft moon light
And I thought together forever
Would be destiny for us
Forever sure blew by like a cloud of dust
And I still see her taillights fading away in the distance
Haunting me, letting me know I've missed it
And I go crazy when I hear her name
I think it's all the maybes that keep driving me insane
Reminding me I'll never ever get that moment back
And my mind keeps on telling me "Let go, face the facts"
And "we were both better off taking different paths"
I know it might be true but my heart won't let me past the past
What if I had whispered, "I love you. Girl you make my life complete, and there's a million reasons that you're everything to me"
But there's no going back to rewrite history's pages
I know, I know, I know I can't change it
And I go crazy when I hear her name
I think it's all the maybes that keep driving me insane
Reminding me I'll never ever get that moment back
And my mind keeps on telling me "Let go, face the facts"
And "we were both better off taking different paths"

I let my chances slip away

but a lesson learned won't bring her back to me
So, I go crazy when I hear her name
I think of all the maybes and it's driving me insane
Reminding me I'll never ever get that moment back
And my mind keeps on telling me "Let go, face the facts"
And "we were both better off taking different paths"
I know it might be true but my heart won't let me past the past
Past the past
Oh, my heart won't let me past the past
