If yesterday was history
Then life's just mystery
Created nightmares
In a world full big dreams
Everything I did in this world
I swear I did for you
Even though we were young
And mor of the time we were drunk
Life in the fast lane
Trying to become one
On the wrong side of the tracks
In a world not meant for two
Somehow, it was all justified
Take back the roses
Give me back my life
Take back the heartache
The hunger and the strive
You can have the moment
Save your face tonight
'Cause if i told you once
I've told you a million times
This ain't right
I know we said things
Said things we didn't mean
Used all the big words
That killed all of the big dreams
Kids in love in a world that seemed bulletproof
Even though I was wrong
When we could have had it all
A different melody
Trying to play the same song
Over and over in a world not meant to rule
Somehow, it was all justified...
Take back the roses
Give me back my life
Take back the heartache
The hunger and the strive
You can have the moment
Save your face tonight
Cus if I told you once
I've told you a million times
It was tough to see
You were there for me
The whole time
(Oohh, Oohh)
If you still believe
In what you see
Let's give ir everything, this time...
Take back the roses
Give me back my life
Take back the heartache
The hunger and the strive
You can have the roses
Give me back my life
Take back the heartache
The hunger and the strive
You can have the moment
Save your face tonight
'Cause if I told you once
I've told you a million times
This ain't right
This ain't right
Let's make it right
'Cause if I told you once
I've told you a million times
This ain't right
Yesterday was history
Then life's just a mystery
