Lyrics

Time Machine

[Verse 1]
The needle spins, the record sighs,
A saxophone whispers, the melody flies.
Laughter echoes from a bygone day,
Teenage hearts in a reckless ballet.

[Prechorus]
The rhythm sways, it pulls me near,
A waltz with the past, so crystal clear.

[Chorus]
Oh, the music's my time machine,
Spinning me back to where I've been.
In the glow of a jukebox sheen,
Reliving dreams at seventeen.

[Verse 2]
The clarinet croons like an old best friend,
Moments replay where summers blend.
Skating rinks and soda shops,
Where the world was ours, and time would stop.

[Bridge]
Horn sections rise, the memories stream,
Each note a portal, a shimmering beam.
Was it the music, or was it me,
That danced so freely, wild and free?

[Chorus]
Oh, the music's my time machine,
Spinning me back to where I've been.
A saxophone cries, a tambourine,
Bringing me back to seventeen.
