I am not the only traveler
Who has not repaid his debt
I've been searching for a trail to follow again
Take me back to the night we met
And then I can tell myself
What the hell I'm supposed to do
And then I can tell myself
Not to ride along with you
I had all and then most of you
Some and now none of you
Take me back to the night we met
I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Haunted by the ghost of you
Oh, take me back to the night we met
When the night was full of terrors
And your eyes were filled with tears
When you had not touched me yet
Oh, take me back to the night we met
I had all and then most of you
Some and now none of you
Take me back to the night we met
I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Haunted by the ghost of you
Take me back to the night we met
Review comment:
- this is the type of song that gives you the feeling of missing someone you’ve never met
- I'm leaving this comment so that whenever someone like it i will come here back and listen to this master piece again
- "Not friends, not enemies, just strangers with memories."
- this is the type of song that makes you feel something you can't really explain....
- It’s so crazy how music can make you feel so much emotions .
- 2 months before the end of 2023 and I still have tears in my eyes when I listen to this song
- Just two months ago, my fiance and i are singing along to this song on Spotify together as we drove late at night on our way to church while he drives. Two months later, I listen to this song alone as I drive late at night mourning over his passing, on ny way to the cemetery where his grave is.
