116th
You wouldn't believe how things have changed,
Hardly anything looks the same
It used to be a quiet street,
Now people pass on hurried feet
You wouldn't believe how things have changed
on 116th
It was a place where love began,
Where you and I walked hand in hand
On a summers night in late July,
I sang to you a lullaby
Not everything ends the way you planned,
on 116th
All we had was a little apartment,
A mattress on the floor where we slept
We lived small, but we dreamed big
And love was growing where we lay
Back then I could only think of now,
And now I look back and wonder how?
How could I have wished away the time,
When life was simple and you were mine
I'd give all that I have to have,
Just one more day (one more day)
In your arms to feel you hold me tight,
To sleep upon your chest at night
I wanna go back, I'd give anything to go back
I wanna go back,
to 116th
