Erik Kingsley - Mistress lyrics

[Verse 1] Swear it feels like we had it all/ Felt like we could never fall/ Not a worry in the world but a soondue Paper/ I blinked now it's x years later/ Driving round my hometown, reminiscing/ Nostalgia's a paramour my heart's kissing/ Missing the days gone by/ I chase you all day in my mind, never catch up/ Past seems like another life, did it take place?/ Feelin like I fabricated everything since life changed/ So many faces who I thought would stick around for long/ Now they're gone/ My best friend then's a stranger now/ I can't change that, & it's stranger how/ Familiar and foreign are 2 sides of the same dime/ Today's a coin toss, which side this time?/ [Hook] Well I know we're not supposed to do this but baby, mind if I stay awhile yeah/ Mind if I stay awhile yeah/ Maybe I'll stay awhile/ 2x [Bridge] I drove down main street in Macungie/ Thinking I don't know how to move on/ If tomorrow's the same as today, I'll take yesterday now that you've gone/ [Verse 2] We were 18, felt like we'd never fall/ Scaled Mt. Naïve, and felt above it all/ We both had our whole life planned/ Chased the tide out, and built our castle in the sand/ But we never saw, trouble far at sea/ Seismic activity, waylayed us with a tsunami/ Swells ruined everything I thought life was gonna be/ I remember reclining on a beach in Hawaii, marveling at the stars God made/ I remember we were saying we'd be together forever, and that we would return some day/ Now the memories are the enemies in my daymares, & nightdreams, and daydreams, & Nightmares…(you don't care)/ I'd sell myself to be HG Wells; please time machine me back there/ [Verse 3] I know my past insideout/ The way I navel gaze for days and pout/ Like the sun will never shine again, never be a time again/ When we will raise our face and we will shout/ I cry like my best days behind me/ I sigh like them blessed days won't find me/ I cry like the past was heaven/ But last I checked that's a future blessing/ It ends wells, He authored every chapter that happened/ What's coming will dwarf what I had then/ Nostalgia, I can't do this, we're through/ I've cheated on today too long with you/ Help me Lord, screw what I can understand/ I look up to the sky, trust that you've got a plan/ Will it ever be that good again? Well no/ Cuz it'll even be better than I could tell you/ [Hook] Well I know we ain't supposed to do this so lady, I must be leaving now yeah/ I must be leaving now yeah/ I must be leing now/ [Outro] Don't cry like the past was Heaven, cuz last I checked that's a future blessing/ Quit cheating on the present and be that/ Joy's coming I promise you we'll see that/
