It was summer in the city
and my heart stood still
I looked at the past inside
my rearview mirror
There was nobody behind me
and nothing up ahead
The sky was blue and all I knew was
I would never feel the same again
I knew I'd never feel the same again
There was imagery in motion
there was gossip in the class
There was holding hands and making plans
I knew it wouldn't last
And of all the time we wasted
and all the time it took
And if I had more time then I wish you would
I really really really wish you would
But that's the part we never tried to stop
We never tried
Ooooh
No regret don't you for get
This magnificent time
Seize the day don't throw away
This magnificent time
I was somewhere in the city
and my heart went boom
I packed all my troubles in a different room
And I thought of all the could have beens
the roads we never took
And how the story ends and I understood
I really really really understood
But that's the part we never tried to stop
We never tried
Ooooh
No regret don't you forget
This magnificent time
Seize the day don't throw away
This magnificent time
No regret don't you forget
This magnificent time
Seize the day don't throw away
This magnificent time
Magnificent time
Magnificent time
