Songs from the heart

travel back and answer yes

Intro:

Travel back and answer yes
Travel back and answer yes

Verse1:

Since I was a child
This question lived in me
Why are the truest words
The hardest ones to speak?

These nights another question keeps me up:
Where are you now?
And I can't help but wonder if you still
remember how

Chorus1:

You said "there's something in the air"
You ran a hand through golden hair
And time froze for an endless second right there

Your head was out the window for a while
Streets lights reflected on your smile
You aksed me: "have you felt alive?"

I'd give up this con-artist happiness
This wealthy void, this wrecked success
To travel back and answer yes
Travel back and answer yes

Verse2:

I tried to use my voice
I thought I did my best
The self defeating fear rejoiced
And wrapped a chain around my chest

These days a burning question roams my mind:
Did I break your heart?
When my silence made your brightest smile
Faint in the dark

Chorus2:

You said "we should be getting home"
Your voice cracked and so did my soul
Now I wash the memory with alcohol

I gripped the steering wheel, choked by my fears
Street lights reflected on your tears
What I wouldn't do to have you near?

To the desperate begging in your eyes:
"Love me enough to stay by my side"
I'd travel back to fix my mess
And answer yes
Travel back and answer yes

Bridge:

I can't even deny
I'm haunted by the dream
I travel back and answer yes
This time I will not lie
I can't even fall asleep
I travel back and answer yes
I can't even deny
In every single dream
I travel back and answer yes
This time I will not lie
I'm no longer asleep
I travel back and answer yes
Travel back and answer yes

Chorus3:

With half a heart, the dying spark in your eyes
Made one last try, denied my lies
and asked me: "do you feel alive?"

Free of this self made chronic distress
The void you left, the weariness
I'd travel back and answer yes
Travel back and answer yes

Outro:
No one told me
the words that you regret
the most are the words
you never said

I wish someone told me
the word I would regret
the most is the word I never said
Wish I could travel back and tell you yes
Travel back and answer yes
