Rewind
Skye Stevens Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

RIFF-it good.
Play "Rewind"
Listen while you read!
midnight, summer racing, love struck, acting crazy
there was no mistaking that we belong
three words sent me racing
so scared, i thought you'd chase me
we both walked away before I knew you changed the game

Never thought it last forever.
Still holding onto what is gone

I wish I could just rewind it before it ended I wish we could just take it
Back back back to the top

I wish there were second chances to do it over
Cause you be coming back
back back to me now
I wish I could just rewind rewind it rewind rewind it rewind rewind it
I would just rewind rewind it rewind rewind it rewind rewind it

Usually young heats don't look back but
My hearts still beats faster
When I think of what we had and now
I just can't move on oh who oh

I wish I would just have said it
Those three words just like I meant it
You be here with me
Instead of missing you

Never though it last forever
Still holding on to what is gone

I wish I could just rewind it before it ended I wish we could just take It back back back to the top

I wish there were second chances to do it over
Cause you be coming back
back back to me now

I wish I could just rewind rewind it rewind rewind it rewind rewind it
I would just rewind rewind it rewind rewind it rewind rewind it

Don't wanna remember
I know what you deserve
The thought that I broke your heart
Is almost to much
And now the hardest part




Is knowing that I have pressed stop
And all that I wanna do is rewind
