Memories come floodin' back through a veil of tears   But I've been almost happy for just the past two years   The word's out that she's come back and the thought makes me tremble   It took two years to forget her and just seconds to remember      Seconds to remember all the things that used to be   Seconds to remember how much she meant to me   Love has burst a flame from a dying ember   It took two years to forget her and just seconds to remember      As I recall the day she left with somebody new   I vowed that I'd forget her any way I could   The minute I heard she was back I felt the same old hunger   It took two years to forget her and just seconds to remember      Seconds to remember all the things that used to be   Seconds to remember how much she meant to me   Love has burst a flame from a dying ember   It took two years to forget her and just seconds to remember
