Keep takin' me back through the years I've never seen/
Put me in the state of mind where I've never been.
Let me see the building up and tearing down of our dreams/
Help me learn from our mistakes...I believe nothing's what it seems.
Through these journey's my eyes see the good and the bad/
I've seen the things we've wanted and the things that we've had.
We have reached for the stars looking for more to learn/
Desiring so much that our sanity never returned.
CHORUS:
Keep takin' me back/
Fill my mind with things I've never seen...oh yeah/
Let me see where lack/
So I won't believe in madmen's dreams.
Keep takin' me back.
Well I know deep inside we'll never understand the past/
I wasn't there when the yesterday's were born/I'm one of the last.
My heart sinks within me when my mind drifts that way/
Into recurrences of our greed and battles night & day.
MIDDLE 8:
It's a sad sad world/
But I can't cry anymore/ (oh no, no)
I still see the past living in me & you/ (oh yeah, yeah)
Back to the present I'm hurled/
My senses close that mental door/
As lifes realities comes back in view. (yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah)
(CHORUS)
Keep takin' me back/keep takin' me back/keep takin' me back!
