'No matter how much you think you want or need it, the past has to remain just that, the past...'
|
|
Could've given you everything that you need
|
but I cannot turn back the years
|
The perfect love was all you wanted from me
|
but I cannot turn back the years
|
|
So we have to be strong, and I'm finding that hard
|
we have to move on, but no matter how hard I try
|
if your heart's in pieces, you look for the truth
|
and when I look deep down inside I know, it's too bad I love you
|
|
Sometimes. hits me in the morning, hits me at night
|
that I cannot turn back the years
|
so I look out my window, turn off my light
|
but I cannot turn back the years
|
|
Can't make it seem easy, when you're all that I see
|
can't live in a dream and I won't serenade the truth
|
people are hurting and they're looking to me
|
and I look at you there's nothing more to say, it's too bad I love you
|
|
But I'm never gonna give it up
|
|
All that I lived for, all that I dreamed
|
but I cannot turn back the years
|
You're the water i drink, you're the air that I breathe
|
but i cannot turn back the years
|
|
So we have to be strong, and I'm finding that hard
|
we have to move on, but no matter how hard I try
|
if your heart's in pieces, you look for the truth
|
and when I look deep down inside I know, it's too bad I love you
|
|
But I'm never gonna give it up
