Broken Memories

Somewhere, somehow In the midst where shadows are plagued Something has to break Something has to ache ...And the rain we heard last night Has now stopped, the sun shines through the drapes Giving me a new emotion Calling in about last night Talking about how we danced People whispered, "They really tripped the light fantastic" Somewhere, somehow In the midst where shadows play Something has to give Something has to take Do you remember, how we played like children? Laughing too, at our mistakes Don't you recall how our minds used to work How come we forget, is gaining knowledge the answer why? ..But somewhere, somehow In the midst where love is stored Something has to live Something has to die Playing silly games and knowing the simple things Rules didn't matter to us Somewhere, somehow In the midst where we all want to be Something has to be trapped Something has to be free And our souls were at peace Our minds reached new heights Remembering about last night, how we danced And all the people all around Whispered, "they're really tripping the light fantastic".
