[Verse 1]
Here I stand alone
With this weight upon my heart
And it will not go away
In my head I keep on looking back
Right back to the start
Wondering what it was that made you change
[Pre-Chorus]
Well I tried, but I had to draw the line
And still this question keeps on spinning in my mind
[Chorus]
What if I had never let you go?
Would you be the man I used to know?
If I'd stayed, if you'd tried
If we could only turn back time
But I guess we'll never know
[Verse 2]
Many roads to take
Some to joy, some to heartache
Anyone can lose their way
And if I said that we could turn it back
Right back to the start
Would you take the chance and make the change?
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you think how it would have been sometimes?
Do you pray that I'd never left your side?
[Chorus]
What if I had never let you go?
Would you be the man I used to know?
If I'd stayed, if you'd tried
If we could only turn back time
But I guess we'll never know
[Bridge]
If only we could turn the hands of time
If I could take you back, would you still be mine?
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I tried, but I had to draw the line
And still this question keeps on spinning in my mind
[Chorus]
What if I had never let you go?
Would you be the man I used to know?
What if I had never walked away?
'Cause I still love you more than I can say
If I'd stayed, if you'd tried
If we could only turn back time
But I guess we'll never know
We'll never know
