Random I know but I wanted to listen to this tonight. Is it on any websites or do I need to boot up the old PC to hear it.

> In the still of the night, you will hear my heart crying
> For a love, that’s long gone
> After so many years, she is always in my dreams
> I can’t erase, can’t forget
>
> Take me back, to the start
> To a time when ev’rything was so brand new, and golden
> How I hate, here & now
> For my body has grown old, and tired and broken
>
> All these damn memories, are so cruel and relentless
> They’ll just haunt, forever
> How they twist & they turn, how they tease & then deny
> They’ll always burn, endlessly
>
> Take me back, to the start
> Let me banish all this heartache, wipe away, all these
> tears
> God I hate, here & now
> So much emptiness torments me, there’s no hope, only
> fears
>
> Am I cursed, for all time, am I cursed to live alone
> Until the day, that I die
> For I’ll never forget, and as long as I remember
> I can never move on
>
> Take me back, to the start
> Far away & long ago is all I yearn, for today
> God I hate, here & now
> There is nothing but a future, yet I crave, yesterday
>
> There’s nothing left here
> My heart is empty
> So many regrets
>
