Afterburner

Caught in the gleam of the city lights
 Sunsets and riversides
 I've been trying to forget the way you caught my eye
 Like a flame that's never gonna die
 Calling me back through December skies
 To campfires and state lines
 Sometimes it feels like you were never mine
 Like a ghost in the summertime
 Looking back I don't regret it
 But sometimes I wish I could forget it
 Caught in the rain on that summer night
 Your laughter had me so high
 Sometimes it's easy to forget the lies
 And the words that hurt me deep inside
 Driving alone down these city roads
 By the place we used to call home
 Part of me still fights to let it go
 But we both know it's over now
 Looking back I don't regret it
 But sometimes I wish I could forget it
 All those days we spent together
 I could have lived like that forever
