Sun

After school Walking home Fresh dirt under my fingernails And I can smell hot asphalt Cars screech to a halt to let me pass And I cannot remember What life was like through photographs Trying to recreate images life gives us from our past     And sometimes it's a sad song But I cannot forget Refuse to regret So glad I met you Take my breath away Make everyday  Worth all of the pain that I have Gone through And mama I've been cryin' Cause things ain't how they used to be She said the battles almost won And we're only several miles from the sun Moving on down the street I see people I won't ever meet Think of her take a breath Feel the beat in the rhythm of my steps And sometimes it's a sad song But I cannot forget Refuse to regret So glad I met you Take my breath away Make everyday Worth all of the pain that I have Gone through And mama I've been cryin' Cause things ain't how they used to be She said the battles almost won And we're only several miles from the sun
