[Verse]
Today I saw in the paper
A recent picture of you
It said you were getting married
You were about to say I do
[Verse]
And that opened the floodgates
Of a time back in the past
When you and I were together
And we thought our love would last
[Verse]
That was back when we were young
And it’s a lifetime away
I still remember everything
Just like it was yesterday
[Chorus]
Those bittersweet memories
Came rushing back today
Of a time when you were mine
But I couldn’t make you stay
Even though it would all end
I still remember all the fun
And I’m nothing but thankful
For our brief time in the sun
Those bittersweet memories…
Came rushing back today
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse]
I remember those summer nights
Us making out in my backseat
Underneath the full moon’s light
Man those times can’t be beat
[Verse]
All those days of holding hands
As we walked along the beach
It was the time life was perfect
And nothing was out of reach
[Verse]
We both lived and laughed and loved
Just as often as we could
But things just didn’t work out
The way that I’d hoped they would
[Verse]
The old world kept on spinning
And time passed like it does
But sometimes it feels good
To think about what once was
[Chorus]
Those bittersweet memories
Came rushing back today
Of a time when you were mine
But I couldn’t make you stay
Even though it would all end
I still remember all the fun
And I’m nothing but thankful
For our brief time in the sun
Those bittersweet memories…
Came rushing back today
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Do you think of the days
The time of you and me
All the fun that we had
When we were young and free
Does it cross your mind
Of how things could’ve been
If we’d stayed together
In those days back then
[Chorus]
Those bittersweet memories
Came rushing back today
Of a time when you were mine
But I couldn’t make you stay
Even though it would all end
I still remember all the fun
And I’m nothing but thankful
For our brief time in the sun
Those bittersweet memories…
Came rushing back today
[Final Chorus]
Those bittersweet memories
Came rushing back today
Of a time when you were mine
But I couldn’t make you stay
Even though it would all end
I still remember all the fun
And I’m nothing but thankful
For our brief time in the sun
Those bittersweet memories…
Came rushing back today
