Magnificent Time

It was summer in the city
And my heart stood still
I looked at the past inside

My rearview mirror
There was nobody behind me
And nothing up ahead

The sky was blue and all I knew
Was I would never feel the same again
I knew I'd never feel the same again

There was imagery in motion
There was gossip in the class
There was holding hands and making plans
I knew it wouldn't last

And of all the time we wasted
And all the time it took
And if I had more time then I wish you would
I really really really wish you would

But that's the part we never tried to stop
We never tried

No regret, don't you forget
This magnificent time
Seize the day, don't throw away
This magnificent time

I was somewhere in the city
And my heart went boom
I packed all my troubles in a different room
And I thought of all the could have beens

The roads we never took
And how the story ends and I understood
I really really really understood

But that's the part
We never tried to stop
We never tried

No regret, don't you forget
This magnificent time
Seize the day, don't throw away
This magnificent time

No regret, don't you forget
This magnificent time
Seize the day, don't throw away
This magnificent time
Magnificent time
Magnificent time
