Can’t Repeat is the opening track of The Offspring’s Greatest Hits album, and is one of two original tracks released on that album, the other being Defy You.
The song is about people not being able to relive their past, and that we must always face the future. While the song’s lyrics are in a cynic...
[Verse 1]
I woke the other day
And saw my world has changed
The past is over, but tomorrow's wishful thinkin'
I can't hold onto what's been done (Woah-oh)
I can't grab onto what's to come (Woah-oh-oh)
And I'm just wishing I could stop, but
[Chorus]
Life goes on, come of age
Can't hold on, turn the page
Time rolls on, wipe these eyes
Yesterday laughs, tomorrow cries
[Verse 2]
Memories are bittersweet
The good times we can't repeat
Those days are gone and we can never get 'em back
Now we must move ahead (Woah-oh)
Despite our fear and dread (Woah-oh-oh)
We're all just wishing we could stop, but
[Chorus]
Life goes on, come of age
Can't hold on, turn the page
Time rolls on, wipe your eyes
Yesterday laughs, tomorrow cries
[Verse 3]
With all our joys and fears
Wrapped in forgotten years
The past is laughing as today just slips away
Time tears down what we've made (Woah-oh)
And sets another stage (Woah-oh-oh)
And I'm just wishing we could stop
[Chorus]
Life goes on, come of age
Can't hold on, turn the page
Time rolls on, wipe these eyes
Yesterday laughs, tomorrow cries
[Outro]
Time rolls oh-oh-oh-oh-on
