Funny Thing About Memory

They say time's a thief
Hard to accept this defeat
It stole the good times away
When I wish those times had stayed

And the funny thing about memory
Is I wind up where I used to be
How much can I look back?
Before I'm stuck in the past

And how can I move forward
And be the person that I once was
Hindsight's lookin' real nice
Cause none of this feels right

Now my heart's torn in two
One part in the past the other new
I remember the good and the bad
Wish I could take back what I had

Everybody's moving on
I don't want to be left alone
Tears roll down my face
I don't want to be in this state

And the funny thing about memory
Is I wind up where I used to be
How much can I look back?
Before I'm stuck in the past

And how can I move forward
And be the person that I once was
Hindsight's lookin' real nice
Cause none of this feels right

What if I lean into the grief
Let my heart break for the hurt
Get up and wash my face
Move on and find my way

The funny thing about memory
Is it takes me where I'm going
Whenever I look back
I see the future in my past

Now I'm moving forward
From the person that I once was
Hindsight still looks real nice
But I know I'll be alright

So I'll lean into the grief
Let my heart break for the hurt
Get up and wash my face
Move on and find my way

And the funny thing about memory
Is it takes me where I'm going
Whenever I look back
I see the future in my past

Now I'm moving forward
From the person that I once was
Hindsight still looks real nice
But I know I'll be alright
