Lyrics
I moved to Tennessee
down from Salt Lake City,
with a disappointed heart
when my world fell apart;
I've thrown pennies down the well
but there's just no way to tell
how you're doin
if you're alright
but I'll see you tonight.
In that old Time Machine
in my dreams
I drift back to way back when again
to you my friend
when we were more than we are today
dancin in the rain
where I never felt the pain or hell
that I've been through
and if I could walk through yesterday
I'd run
home to you
I could wish upon a star
but I won't get very far
there's no point in even wishing
don't believe in superstition
So I'll just have to pray
and hope that you're ok
cause there's just no way I'll every know
unless I go
In that old Time Machine
in my dreams
I drift back to way back when again
to you my friend
when we were more than we are today
dancin in the rain
where I never felt the pain or hell
that I've been through
and if I could walk through yesterday
I'd run home to you
