Lyrics
Take Me Back to the Day
Words and Music by Jason Bennett
I'm sitting on the front porch drinking lemonade
This Colorado sun is starting to fade
I'm thinking of you in that lace shirt
And the way it fell down across your skirt
And those summer days, just you and me
With the temperature rising to 103
But those days are gone and you found somebody new
You left me on the dance floor all alone and blue
Well I sure wish you could tell me what's going on
Let me know what I did right or what I did wrong
Chorus
Take me back to the day
Take me back to the day
When it was you and me
Underneath that shady tree
Take me back to the day
Now I come home from work and pull off my boots
Ain't nothing on the stove ain't nothing on the tube
Honey its awful tough playing this guessing game
Can't you do something quick to ease the pain
Well I sure wish you could tell me what's going on
Let me know what I did right or what I did wrong
Chorus
Take me back to the day
Take me back to the day
When we were going strong
And there wasn't nothin' wrong
Take me back to the day
Bridge
Take me back to the day when we had it all
Skipping stones from Tennessee down to Arkansas
But now I'm thinking of your smile
It's got me walking a crooked mile
Now I'm sitting on the front porch drinking lemonade
This Colorado sun is starting to fade
I'm thinking of you in that lace shirt
And the way it fell down across your skirt
