Track Insight / Lyrics
Faded signs light up the night
Candy wrappers litter the midway
Empty booths with their fading might
Whispers of laughter gone astray
Memories of joy that won't subside
A melancholy summer's lingering tide
Rustling leaves and cricket's gentle pride
The bittersweet taste of love and pride
Oh, the forgotten midway, where we used to play
Under stars that twinkled all through the night
Our hearts full of hope, our love in perfect sway
A dreamlike time that now feels out of sight
Prematurely darkened Ferris wheel
A Ferris wheel that goes nowhere still
Popcorn stands and shiny ticket peel
Reminding me of a love so real
Memories of joy that won't subside
A melancholy summer's lingering tide
Rustling leaves and cricket's gentle pride
The bittersweet taste of love and pride
Oh, the forgotten midway, where we used to play
Under stars that twinkled all through the night
Our hearts full of hope, our love in perfect sway
A dreamlike time that now feels out of sight
Would I trade it for today's perfect hues?
For the love, we held onto all those blues?
I long to walk those creaky wooden shoes once more
In the magic time trapped 'til dawn's early roar
Oh, the forgotten midway, where we used to play
Under stars that twinkled all through the night
Our hearts full of hope, our love in perfect sway
A dreamlike time that now feels so far away
So let the wind of time gently say low low
Of love beneath the lights, long ago
In the forgotten midway, where our hearts used to glow
