Sinking all the time, there was only light Everything aligned I was gonna be, exactly what I want Before I lost it all I could only love, cause love is all it was I couldn't see the lies behind it all In 1991 I wish it was simple, like 1991 I fell in love, in 1991 Making all the plans, movies in my head The sun's a memory Dreaming 'bout it all, sleeping with the dog Never giving in Now I'm by myself like everybody else And all the pretty lights have been turned off And I can't see what was I wish it was simple, like 1991 I fell in love, in 1991 And I wish it was simple, like 1991 I fell in love, in 1991 Wish I could open up this heart Do I get up and look beyond? I know, I won't And boy get back to the best of me (uh-huh) And I wish it was simple, like 1991 I fell in love, in 1991 And I wish it was simple, like 1991 I fell in love, with 1991 1991 1991
