Airfield Dream

I drove through the desert last night
 I carried the weight of our last fight
 Elvis singing "don't be cruel"
 And I wonder if you feel it too
 It's like we're going under
 Somewhere outside the lonely Esmeralda county line
 The question of my heart came to my mind
 If I go on
 With you by my side
 Can it be
 The way it was
 When we met
 Did you forget all about those golden nights?
 Maybe a thief stole your heart
 Or maybe we just drifted apart
 I remember driving
 In my daddy's car to the airfield
 Blanket on the hood, backs against the windshield
 Back then this thing was running on momentum, love and trust
 That paradise is buried in the dust
 If I go on
 With you by my side
 Can it be
 The way it was
 When we met
 Did you forget all about those golden nights?
 (The way it was)
 All of our plans have fallen through
 Sometimes a dream, it don't come true
 Darling!
 Darling!
 If we go on
 Can it be
 The way it was
 When we met
 Did you forget all about them golden nights?
 If I go on
 With you by my side
 Can it be
 The way it was
 My heart is true
 Girl, it's just you
 I'm thinking of
 Can it be the way it was?
 Maybe a thief stole your heart
