Looking back
I think of the time I spent with you
Everyday was amazing
As we dreamed up something new
Sometimes the times were tough
We had frustration and strife
But now I ve come to realize
It was the best time of my life

What I would give if I could live
That year again
If I could unlearn all the things I ve learned
About life and one best friend
If only I could go on from here
Knowing what I knew then
My life would be better
If I could forget

People say they d like to go back
Knowing what they know now
I d like to go forward
With what I had somehow
Ignorance is happiness
That s all that I want
Time goes on and memories
Are all that I ve got

What I would give if I could live
That year again
If I could unlearn all the things I ve learned
About life and one best friend
If only I could go on from here
Knowing what I knew then
My life would be better
If I could forget

So I ll quietly leave through the door
And maybe pretend
Things are the way they were before
I ll relive it again and learn the hard way
I don t care what it takes or what people have to say
It s never easy
Well what was?
It doesn t matter
What does?
As long as I ve got you and what I had then
Then I will be forever content

What I would give if I could live
That year again
If I could unlearn all the things I ve learned
About life and one best friend
If only I could go on from here
Knowing what I knew then
My life would be better
If I could forget

Looking back
I think of the time I spent with you
