Lyrics

VERSE 1
I feel the northern wind
Chill to the bone
As I’m reaching out for you
Cruel Mirage- yes, I’m still alone
Wants and needs, I’ve missed a few
Drawn back in time, now gone bye
Still, I hold on to today
Reversed approach
Once was real
Down a River, washed away
PRE-CHORUS
I have no time to bargain
It would only hold demands
A traded time for yesterday
Would ruin future plans
CHORUS
I'm reaching through the rearview
There’s no grip on yesterday
Lose a memory, oh so slowly
Now watch it fade away
My desire still escapes me
Hot coals, they burn so slow
I can’t outrun what I’ve become
To a heart’s left empty hole
The cold winters still before me
From, hot summers of the past
Times gone by, and so have I
Some things aren’t made to last
VERSE 2
Seen reflections in the water
Emotions will appear
Thoughts of conversations
Linger in my ear

PRE-CHORUS
To the road I travel now
I’ve crossed so many lines
Her voice, it whispers in my ear
Gets louder over time
CHORUS
I'm reaching through the rearview
There’s no grip on yesterday
Lose a memory, oh so slowly
Now watch it fade away
My desire still escapes me
Hot coals, they burn so slow
I can’t outrun what I’ve become
To a heart’s left empty hole
The cold winters still before me
From, hot summers of the past
Times gone by, and so have I
Some things aren’t made to last

BRIDGE
A mended heart
Can beat again
Torn pieces me and you
A fabric cut
Designed apart
One pattern now are two

FINAL CHORUS
I'm reaching through the rearview
There’s no grip on yesterday
Lose a memory, oh so slowly
Now watch it fade away
My desire still escapes me
Hot coals, they burn so slow
I can’t outrun what I’ve become
To a heart’s left empty hole
The cold winters still before me
From, hot summers of the past
Times gone by, and so have I
Some things aren’t made to last
OUTRO
Times gone by, and so have I…
Some things aren’t made to last …
