Turn Back the Clocks

take
every inch of space
needed and i’ll just wait
wait till you come around

try, i dare you to try and replace
all that we had love and hate
no matter the distance
you can’t drive these feelings away

and i know
now that it’s over and gone
now that the years have moved on
i wish that it lasted longer
turn back the clocks and start over

i know that i did you wrong
i long for you to be happy and free
from the essence of me
but baby
don’t, don’t you forget
forget what i said when i thought you were mine
i’ll be here waiting for you
while you take your time

your, your love was warm unlike mine
holding my heart felt like ice
and you couldn’t help but to slip every time

and i know
that it wasn’t fair to lead on
when i couldn’t give you my all
i wish i had fought you longer

turn back the clocks and start over

i know that i did you wrong
i long for you to be happy and free
from the essence of me
but baby
don’t, don’t you forget
forget what i said when i thought you were mine
i’ll be here waiting for you
while you take your time

I want you free, but i can’t seem to let go.
this is worse than i thought it would be.
you have grown colder.
If i were to reach out my hand, could we turn back the clocks.
Would you let me start over?

i know that i did you wrong
i long for you to be happy and free
from the essence of me
but baby
don’t, don’t you forget
forget what i said when i thought you were mine
i’ll be here waiting for you
while you take your time
