Wonder Why (Take Me Back)

Would you stop and stare
if fireflies filled the air,
and all I did was look at you?
If you held me and I breathed deep,
but I'm too tired to fall asleep,
would you keep your arms
around me?

A thousand broken hearts
and no excuses falling apart.
No more wasting time with memory.
Three more just walked out my door
so I fall down and cry on the floor,
and wonder why I can't remember you.
Take me back.

Would you stand down
if you're trying to fly,
or tell me there are no goodbyes?
And take me with you
way up high?
If I'm falling behind
and I can't hold on,
would you give me a smile
that helps me along?

A thousand broken hearts
and no excuses falling apart.
No more wasting time with memory.
Three more just walked out my door
so I fall down and cry on the floor,
and wonder why I can't remember you.
Take me back...

...to the time when
two hearts beat as one.
You would stop the world
if I slipped away,
and you'd be by me,
say "it'll be okay."
It'll be okay...

A thousand broken hearts
and no excuses falling apart.
No more wasting time with memory.
Three more just walked out my door
so I fall down and cry on the floor,
and wonder why I can't remember you.
Wonder why I never saw the truth,
wonder why I never knew
how much I needed you.
