Rewind

A quick set of lyrics I jotted down off the top of my head.

You're there in the dark

Playing games with my mind

You still have got a hold of my heart

 

There's nothing I can do

 

Like a fresh memory

I try to let you go

But I hear you coming for me

 

And my world fades to blue

 

'Cause you left me in my darkest hour

You were gone before the sun even rose in the sky

And you never told me why

 

But now the moments seem to fade like memories

Locked within the shadows of my mind

Like the ghosts that come back to haunt me

How I wish I could hit rewind

Return to the moments when you still loved me

Back to another place and time

But those moments are far behind me

How I wish I could hit rewind

 

I'm taking a chance

I'm risking all the odds

I'm begging you for another dance

 

And I'm waiting for the night

 

To get you alone

I'll take you in the backseat

Then I'm going to drive you home

 

And love will then be right

 

You touched me with the deepest passion

Started a fire and let it burn so strong

I never thought that you'd be gone

 

But now the moments seem to fade like memories

Locked within the shadows of my mind

Like the ghosts that come back to haunt me

How I wish I could hit rewind

Return to the moments when you still loved me

Back to another place and time

But those moments are far behind me

And I can't seem to rewind

 

I'll take you to the ends of the world

I'll take you over the top

I'll love you to the end of my life

You'll never get me to stop

 

But now the moments seem to fade like memories

Somewhere in the darkness of my mind

Like the remnants of a lost melody

How I wish I could hit rewind

Find those moments when you still loved me

I know they're somewhere lost in time

But those moments are far behind me

And there's no way I can hit rewind

There's no way i can rewind

For jotting off the top of the head EXCELLENT!
I like the flow of this poem and its visualization is great!
Sad but alas it is the way of love and no we cannot rewind only remember the love we lost.
