Let's Go Back in Time (updated)

Let's go back in time
Rewind
De-create
Grow together instead of apart.

Let's go back in time
Laugh instead of cry
Hold each other oh, so tight in the middle of the deepest darkest nights.

Let's go back in time
Forget who we have become
Erase the harmless words
That were not completely wrong,
It's just that they were not completely right.

Let's go back in time.
I promise I won't make the same mistakes again
I promise I'll write for you every day
I promise it all
Promise everything for you.
Would that be enough?
Would it be enough for you?

Let's go back in time.

For you
I would.
In any given heartbeat
I would.

the day that changed my life

“ Hey, Is Teera There?”
“ May I ask who is calling?”
“It is her boyfriend, Patrick.”
“ Hold on please.”
While Teera’s mom went to get her, I got my skis and my ski boots ready for the trip.
“Hey, Patrick. What’s up?”
“ Nothing much, just wanted to know if you still wanted to go on that ski trip to chuckle berry hill?”
