*** Verse 1 ***
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

*** Chorus 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'd, you'd still be mine

*** Verse 2 ***
Funny, funny how time goes by
And blessings are missed
In the wink of an eye
Oh why, oh why, oh why
Should one have to go on suffering
When every day I plead
Please come back to me

*** Chorus 2 ***
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 my darlin' you'd still be mine

*** Middle Section ***
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

*** Chorus 3 ***
Whoa,
If I could turn, turn back the hands of time
Then my darlin' you'd, you would be mine, whoa
If I could turn, turn back the hands of time
Then my darlin' you'd still be mine

*** Chorus 4 ***
Whoa,
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, Whoa...

*** Outro ***
If I (If I could turn back)
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,
love you
