lyrics

She knows this melody immediately
Struck by a time, by a place, by a vision of a face
She hasn't seen in decades
And how could she forget?
There were endless summer nights and dancing then

Oo oo oo oo oo, you’ve gotta give it some time
Then the time goes by in a heartbeat
The one you left behind
Now is not right, you said back then
Let's wait a while you said to them
All you’re left with are these rose-colored glasses

With every passing note, the memories flood
She remembers how they moved as the music fills the room
Spinning beneath the disco lights
Innocent and blind to what was waiting on the other side

Oo oo oo oo oo, you’ve gotta give it some time
Then the time goes by in a heartbeat
The one you left behind
Now is not right, you said back then
Let's wait a while you said to them
All you’re left with are these rose-colored glasses

It's too late to say hello again
Those good times became goodbyes
And now it's too late, to say hello again
Those good times became goodbyes

It's too late to say hello again
It's too late

It’s too late to hello again
Those good times became goodbyes

Oo oo oo oo oo, you’ve gotta give it some time
Then the time goes by in a heartbeat
The one you left behind
Now is not right, you said back then
Let's wait a while you said to them
All you’re left with are these rose-colored glasses

Oo oo oo oo oo, you’ve gotta give it some time
Then the time goes by in a heartbeat
The one you left behind
Now is not right, you said back then
Let's wait a while you said to them
All you’re left with are these rose-colored glasses

The one you left behind
