I used to watch that show with you; I'm afraid to watch now.
I used to enjoy nature, as we walked hand in hand; its beauty is wasted on me now.

I used to long for tomorrow and all it would bring; now I'm trapped in yesteryear.

I used to know who I was and who I wanted to be; I don't know either now.
I used to be a hopeless romantic; now the concept tangles me in fear.
I used to long for tomorrow and all it would bring; now I'm trapped in yesteryear.
