[Intro]
Long ago I was left alone didn’t know where to go
I was surrounded by people and faces of those I loved
The nights that were wild
Beer and shots all around
Those memories haunt me
[Verse]
I met you on a date when you were with someone else
Fast forward thru the times in the distant future
You fucked everything up and I moved on
I remember everything like it was yesterday
You tried and tried and tried to come back
But I never allowed it
I was….much…happier
[Pre Chorus]
If started at a club with a stranger walking up
A rose was placed in front of a girl little did she know her whole world would change
Non stop talking from day one
Little did the girl know that happiness would fade away too
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
Stranded and alone in unknown places
No where to go and no where to run
No one to call her own
Tears upon her pillow every night
Contemplating how she got here
She just wanted to go back home
Home was where the heart was once
Home was with you but you took that away
You didn’t have anything left to say
I know you missed her but never showed it
[Verse]
Rewinding time is not the answer no more
Chances come and go but for you I would turn back the hands of time
The time where I would call you mine
Cruising in the car listening to Madonna
Rolling the windows down to feel the breeze
Dancing like it was ‘99 and no care in the world
All of those are just memories now
Memories never fade
Even though she tried so hard
[Chorus]
Stranded and alone in unknown places
No where to go and no where to run
No one to call her own
Tears upon her pillow every night
Contemplating how she got here
She just wanted to go back home
Home was where the heart was once
Home was with you but you took that away
You didn’t have anything left to say
I know you missed her but never showed it
[Verse]
Then one day after all the hurt she finally looked up and saw her
Waiting this whole time for that first embrace
It was finally going to be her happy ending
But she was still scared
The girl look at her and said “take my hand and don’t look back”
[Final Chorus]
Stranded and alone in unknown places
No where to go and no where to run
No one to call her own
Tears upon her pillow every night
Contemplating how she got here
She just wanted to go back home
But finally one day home found her
The hurt was washed away
She was cared for the way she should’ve been all along
[Outro]
It was years ago when the hurt started and now it’s gone
The memories will still be there
But she’s no longer hurting
Standing looking in the mirror she realized this is what happiness is all about
Second chances come and go
But don’t shut your heart off
You’ll never know who’s looking for you one day
