She was my beauty queen
just eighteen,
with the love light in her eyes
We had nothing much,
but just this hunch
that everything was gonna turn out right

I was a "rock star"
not getting too far,
but we both knew things werent easy
Two lives
busting overtime
man she tried so hard to please me
and i give myself again....if i could go back when.

but I cant walk on burnt bridges,
and I cant fly if you aint got the sky
I cant dance on broken hinges
you see me try and i think you know why
it can never be again...unless we could go back when.

months done the line
and im making time,
for the things i missed out then.
I had the earth
but I missed the worth
of things that could have been.
and i give myself again....if i could go back when.

and I cant walk on burnt bridges,
and I cant fly if you aint got the sky
I cant dance on broken hinges
heres my heart dont believe its a lie
we can never be again...unless we could go back when.

now we can try over and over but all we are is getting older and we both know the end of the play, and it seems to me that every knockin on my door I'm thinking bout you every single day

but I cant walk on burnt bridges,
and I cant fly if you aint got the sky
I cant dance on broken hinges
you see me try and i think you know why
it can never be again...unless we could go back when.
