Song Lyrics

I guess I'm not too good at keeping love alive for long
I think I've found the answers but the answer's always wrong
My first love was my true love and it should have been my last
The only time I'm happy when I'm dreaming in the past

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me
The way it used to be
Back then was when
We touched the starlight

Sometimes you turn away from what your heart tells you is right
And so you settle for whatever gets you through the night
The flame you thought was dead may suddenly begin to burn
And broken hearts can be repaired, that's something that you learn

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me
The way it used to be
Back then was when
We touched the starlight

I've re-lived every moment that i ever shared with you
What fools we were to end a dream that looked like coming true

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me
The way it used to be

Back then was when
We touched the starlight

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me
The way it used to be
Back then was when
We touched the starlight

I guess I'm not too good at keeping love alive for long
I think I've found the answers but the answer's always wrong
My first love was my true love and it should have been my last
The only time I'm happy when I'm dreaming in the past

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me
The way it used to be
Back then was when
We touched the starlight

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me
The way it used to be
Back then was when
We touched the starlight
