[Verse] Time machine take me back To the nights of streetlight gold Chasing shadows hearts still bold The cracks in the pavement spoke her name And the fire in my chest lit the flame [Prechorus] Before the grind before the gray Before the years just slipped away [Chorus] Time machine take me back To the days of running after her When there was still some slack And the world wasn't such a blur Take me back take me back take me back [Verse 2] Hands held tight no thought of loss The future wide like an open road Now it's a map that's frayed and cold Dreams turned whispers scattered in frost Every sunrise feels like a cost [Chorus] Time machine take me back To the days of running after her When there was still some slack And the world wasn't such a blur Take me back take me back take me back [Bridge] But the dials are stuck the gears won’t spin I'm locked in a cage of could’ve been Her laugh's an echo her face a haze I'm stranded in these hollow days
