Rode By The Place (Where We Used To Stay)

The past is never forgotten
It merely takes its place
In empty space of each yesterday

I was out riding, so I rode
By the place where we used to stay
I was out riding, so I rode
By where we used to stay

The flowers that we planted
Are still growing in the yard
I can still smell the fragrance
As sweet memories return to my heart

And I pulled over to the curb
And stared aimlessly at the door
It was hard to imagine
We didn't live there anymore

I was out riding
It was a sunny day, woo-hoo, ha
So I rode by where we used to stay
I was out riding
I stopped in at a car wash that afternoon
So I rode by where we used to stay

Listen, the people we knew and trusted
Have all since then moved away
But I can still hear their gossip
Through the silence when I think of yesterday

A faded picture in my wallet
That I hold in my hand
Takes me back to the time
When love was in our plan

I was out riding
I wasn't doing nothing else
But doing my ride around town
So I rode by the place where we used to stay
I was out riding
It was a sunny day
So I rode by where we used to stay

A faded picture in my wallet
That I hold in my hand
Takes me back to the time
When love was in our plan

I was out riding
So I rode, I rode by the place where we used to stay
I was out riding
So I rode by where we used to stay

I was out riding
It was a bright and sunny day
Oh, so I rode
Memories took me back where we used to stay, baby
Thinking about all the good times
So I rode by where we used to stay
