I still recall every summer night
Like it was yesterday
The time would never end
And my friends were family
Nothing mattered more
Than the loyalty we had
Now i'm a world away from everything we shared

I had something better
Waiting ahead
I try to take control of my heart
I had something better
But i'll tear it down and i'll tape it up
By my own design I fall

Bring back the days
Three story parking lot
The air is never dry
As the city falls asleep, days bleed into the night

The tables set the stage
For a life of memories
But i'm a world away from everything
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/s/story+of+the+year/page+avenue_10225626.html ]
I had something better
Waiting ahead
I try to take control of my heart
I had something better
But i'll tear it down and i'll tape it up
By my own design I fall
Apart as time passes by
I fall apart but the memories never die

And I still recall every summer night
It seems like yesterday but I'm still a world away (still a world away)

I had something better
Waiting ahead
I try to take control of my heart
I had something better
But i'll tear it down and i'll tape it up
By my own design I fall

I had something better (I had something better)
I had something better
Fall apart
As time passes
