Vanilla Sky

Our December
I won't forget
I'll remember

I've been dreaming of our last December
We were young, but I can still remember
Vivid memories of you still laughing
Feels like just the other day you sheltered me

Walking on the beach
The sun kept rising up
Your footprints in the sand it led me
If I only knew our time was fading...
You were never coming home
Where I needed you

The light
Still burns me deep inside
The way you left
With no goodbyes
Was it a day dream?
Why can't we just rewind?

And we can't go back
Even though we try
In the rear-view mirror
Got left behind
With you
I felt
Alive
(Just take me back tonight)

27 years it feels so crazy
Everyone got out
But I'm a maybe
Every turn I take it leaves me weary
Had enough, I can find my own way

Let me close my eyes and feel Vanilla Sky
Are you waiting for me on the other side?
If I only knew I might come running
Not so easy cause I found something I'll lose
With you
A chance to feel alive
To breathe in deep
To simplify
Just need to get out of my own way
Now

And we can't go back
Even though we try
In the rear-view mirror
Got left behind
With you
I felt
Alive
(Just take me back)
We'll create new moments
Another high
Only one way forward to survive
With you
I'll chase
The light
(We'll make it out alive)

Every day I try to find new ways to heal
(I look for you, you pull me through)
Every moment when I feel undone
You save me
(You know me)

Look around
Nothing makes us feel
(That's why I try to access you)
You remind me why I keep on chasing
Something
Through nothing

And we can't go back
Even though we try
In the rear-view mirror
Got left behind
With you
I felt
Alive

We'll create new moments
Another high
Only one way forward
To survive
With you
I'll chase
The light
(We'll make it out alive)
Our December
I won't forget
I'll remember
