[Verse 1]
I hear them say
They say that you were never real
You look at me
And whisper bliss into my ear
So they say
They say that time will always heal
But look at me
And ask me how I really feel
I can't stop time!
I can't relive my past!
I'm left with a vacant memory
Of how my life is moving way too fast
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn back!
[Chorus]
It's just like clockwork (Clockwork!)
Watch me kiss my youth goodbye (Goodbye!)
All I wanted was to turn back time (To turn back time!)
[Bridge]
The time lays waste to ashes
My soul lays waste the broken mind
The time lays waste to ashes
My soul lays waste the broken mind
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn back!
[Chorus]
It's just like clockwork (Clockwork!)
Watch me kiss my youth goodbye (Goodbye!)
All I wanted was to turn back time (To turn back time!)
[Verse 2]
I'm begging on my knees
Turn back! Turn back!
Oh, won't you spare me please?
I'm pleading! I'm grieving!
I can't fulfill my eternity
Eternity please, let me be
Just let me live again
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn back!
[Chorus]
It's just like clockwork (Clockwork!)
Watch me kiss my youth goodbye
All I wanted was to turn back time
[Verse 3]
We'll say our goodbyes
Then slowly lay down to die
Our lives like clockwork
Another second simply flies on by
Goodbye!
[Verse 4]
And now they'll say!
They'll say that I was never real
Forgotten life!
A song that no one sang again
And I will be
A memory that will never heal
I turn to God
She whispers bliss into my ear
[Bridge]
It's just like clockwork
Just let me go
Let me go!
[Outro]
The time lays waste to ashes
My soul lays waste the broken mind
