I will time travel back
Wondering where did all the time go?
There's so many things you have to tell me.
There's so many things I'm dying to know.

And all that time to make up for
Leaving behind useless words.
Burning cheeks and bruised lips
Hearts beating like stampeding herds.

I'm sorry for ever leaving you love
I'm sorry for not being sorry.
But you have no idea what these eyes have seen.
You have no idea what has happened to me.

I will melt the ice that has frozen time.
Return to life I truly did miss.
Bringing with me back a lifetime
I'll make up each minute with a kiss

I really missed my boyfriend while being over seas so I wrote this thinking of when I would return.
