"The Past Still Calls"

Mm

Mm

I walked alone down memory lane

Felt old sunshine, tasted old rain

Every step brought you back to me

Like a ghost in my melody

Your voice still hums in the night so low

In every place I used to go

Time moves on but I still stay

Lost in yesterday

But I, I won't cry no more

Though it hurts like before

Every tear helped me see

Who I'm meant to be

For the past may remain

Like a soft falling rain

But it don't hold me down

I'm still standing my ground

Mm

There were nights I could barely breathe

Holding on to what I couldn't keep

Broken dreams on an empty chair

Your shadow still sitting there

But a voice deep inside my soul

Said, "Boy, you gotta let it go"

Love don't leave, it just changes form

Keeps your heart warm

No, I, I won't cry no more

I found peace in the storm

All the pain, all the years

Turned my doubts into tears

Now the past softly fades

In the choices I've made

And I carry the light

From those old days tonight

Mm

Hm

The past don't break you

Mm

It makes you whole
