    My struggle

    Open my eyes to see a new day

    Hoping it will be a lighter shade of gray

    Missing the joy, the love that I lost

    Want it back at any cost.

    Looking back at a road so long

    Looking for the place where we went wrong

    Time went by I didn't see

    It went away from you and me

    I'm scared, lonely, empty inside

    My heart my soul swept away by the tide

    Want it back! All that made me smile

    Want it back, if only for a while.

     

    Roll out of bed, scratching my head wish I was dead

    Tryin' to remember all that was said

    Tryin' to figure out, was it you was it me?

    Were we just a combination that could never be

    Don't wanna accept the bitter taste of defeat

    So I'll keep on marching to my own beat

    The beat of my heart fueled by desire

    It's a precarious march on a high wire

    But I'm willing to risk it, don't care if I fall

    If I can't have us back I'd rather loose it all

    Want it back! All that made me smile

    Want it back, if only for a while.

     

    I know there are things we don't wanna see

    That drove a wedge between you and me

    We can't undo it or wish it away

    But if we fight together maybe some day

    We can stand side by side on happiness hill

    Look back at our lives, say we did God's will

    We stood up for love the gift from above

    Made our relationship soar like a white dove

    Above all the filth that satan delivers

    Destruction addiction shakes and shivers

    Want it back! All that made me smile

    Want it back, if only for a while.
