Sometimes I wake up in the morning and it cuts me like a knife
I come face-to-face with my longing for another world, another life
And a time that never was
A time that never was
We drove on, fueled not by the future but by a past we could never touch
Forced to run head-on collisions till we vanished in the dust
Of a time that never was
The time that never was
So kiss me once more baby, one more kiss baby you must
Don't ever let me forget, girl
A time that never was
A time that never was
The time that never was
The time that never was
...
