Can we begin again?

Can we go back to 1997?

Can I tell you a secret about me

and then kiss you,

maybe for the only time?

Can we go back to that night

at my apartment?

Can I tell you

what I was too scared to

then?

Could you overcome

your shyness

to tell me

maybe you felt the same?

Would you give me

one night

if we went back there again?

Are you willing to take a different path?

Are you willing to trade

your history

for what could have been

what would have been

what should have been?

If I could see you again,

the way we both were.

would you accept my invitation

to the love of your life?

Would you let me kiss?

Would you let me taste?

Would you give me the chance

to ruin your faith?

If we could pick up

where we left off,

would our story go on?

Would it have a new ending?

If I saw you again,

would our feelings be the same?

There’s so many things

I wish I could know.

But I gave that chance up

years ago.

If I could travel through time,

you’d be the first one I’d see.

So I could ask you

if you ever wanted me.

I can’t deal with

the fact

that you’re gone.

While your memory

lingers on and on.

Come back to me in visions.

Come back to me in dreams.

Come back to me, baby.

Don’t leave me at the

edge of paradise

without you.
