Postcards From The Past
If the world keeps turning
And the mind keeps burning
Can you feel the passion?
I cannot make it happen once again
Now I'm running in times that are frightening
But I won’t let that break me
I won’t let that take me down again, no

So you know my story
Well, I’ll tell you a secret
Inside I was certain
Inside I was crying out for more
Now I’m roaming through streets that are empty
To find my destination
Will you touch my fascination once again?

It’s like a memory that will last
Like a postcard from the past
Yesterday is history
It’s there for all the world to see

Like a memory that will last
Like a postcard from the past
My future seems wide open
And tomorrow’s never broken
So come on
I'm twice the man I used to be
Through a journey of discovery
And it’s more than a feeling
It’s there inside the meaning
Of the man who is speaking
To all of your emotions
And now I’m beholden to keys to our future in my hand

Ah ow!
It’s like a memory that will last
Like a postcard from the past
Yesterday is history
It’s there for all the world to see

Like a memory that will last
Yeah, like a postcard from the past
My future seems wide open
And tomorrow’s never broken
So come on

You don’t understand that I won’t shake
You don’t realize that I won’t break
'Cause I could be so strong for you alone
We can live it once again
Oh yeah!
Yow!

So you know my story
Well I’ll tell you a secret
Yesterday is history
It’s there for all the world to see

Like a memory that will last
Like a postcard from the past
Yesterday is history
It’s there for all the world to see

Like a memory that will last
Like a postcard from the past
My future seems wide open
And tomorrow’s never broken

Like a memory that will last
Like a postcard from the past
I think my future seems wide open
And tomorrow’s never broken
So come on
Come on
Come on
Come on!
