Lyrics

Ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh... Ooh, wee Wish that I could wind Like a spiral stair through time With your body next to mine Warm and satisfying Wish that I could catch A night train to the past Climb aboard and hear you ask Darlin', come inside, ooh... ooh... yeah Can it be that it was all so simple then Or has time rewritten every line And if we had the chance to do it all again Tell me would we, could we Memories Light the corners of my mind Misty water colored memories For the way we were Ooh... ooh... Scattered pictures Of the smiles we left behind Smiles we gave to one another For the way we were, yeah... yeah... Can it be that it was all so simple then Or has time rewritten every line And if we had the chance to do it all again Tell me would we, could we Memories May be beautiful and yet What's too painful to remember I swear to God, we simply choose to forget So it's the laughter We will remember Whenever we remember The way... The way we were Ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh... yeah... yeah Ooh, wee Wish that I could wind Like a spiral stair through time With your body next to mine Warm and satisfying Memories Doo doo doo doo doo doo... Ooh...
