How did I ever let you slip away
|
Never knowing I'd be singing this song some day
|
And now I'm sinking, sinking to rise no more
|
Ever since you closed the door
|
|
[1] - If I could turn, turn back the hands of time
|
Then my darlin' you'd still be mine
|
If I could turn, turn back the hands of time
|
Then darlin' you, you'd still be mine
|
|
Funny, funny how time goes by
|
And blessings are missed in the wink of an eye
|
Why oh why oh why should one have to go on suffering
|
When every day I pray please come back to me
|
|
[Repeat 1]
|
|
And you had enough love for the both of us
|
But I, I, I did you wrong, I admit I did
|
But now I'm facing the rest of my life alone, whoa
|
|
[Repeat 1]
|
|
I'd never hurt you (If I could turn back)
|
Never do you wrong (If I could turn back)
|
And never leave your side (If I could turn back)
|
If I could turn back the hands
|
|
There'd be nothing I wouldn't do for you
|
(If I could turn back)
|
Forever honest and true to you
|
(If I could turn back)
|
If you accept me back in your heart, I love you
|
(If I could turn back the hands)
|
|
(If I could turn back)
|
That would be my will
|
(If I could turn back)
|
Darlin' I'm begging you to take me by the hands
|
(If I could turn back the hands)
|
|
I'm going down, yes I am
|
(If I could turn back)
|
Down on my bended knee, yeah
|
(If I could turn back)
|
And I'm gonna be right there until you return to me
|
(If I could turn back the hands)
|
|
(If I could turn back)
|
If I could just turn back that little clock on the wall
|
(If I could turn back)
|
Then I'd come to realize how much I love you
|
Love you love you love you
|
(If I could turn back the hands)
|
