Take Me Back To Used To Be by Britt ZimmermanI am getting used to hearing the sound of my breath
Youve been gone for just so long
And though livin without you feels so close to death
Somehow I just keep moving on
And Its been so lonely without you around
watchin time just tickin away
I can feel you slippin see me losin ground
man it seems like just yesterday
I remember how you moved along my skin
and your slow grind on my hips
How good it felt to bring you in
and the sweet taste of your lips
Sometimes I dream that I can hear you breathing
and I can feel your weight next to me
I awake to the sound of my lonely heart beating
With only a memory
of the way we used to be
Push back the seconds
rewind the years
lets refind the laughter
erase the tears
Take me back to used to be
take me back to you and me
And time she plays that never ending game
seconds explode and fade away
Yet the pain burns deep its gentle flame
I miss you more each day
