If I Could Turn Back the Hands of Time Lyrics

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
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, you'd still be mine
Funny, funny how time goes by
And blessings are missed in the wink of an eye
Why oh why oh why should one have to go on suffering
When every day I pray please come back to me
Repeat 1

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, whoa
Repeat 1
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

There'd be nothing I wouldn't do for you
(If I could turn back)

Forever honest and true to you
(If I could turn back)
If you accept me back in your heart, I love yuou
(If I could turn back the hands)

(If I could turn back)
That would be my will
(If I could turn back)

Darlin' I'm begging you to take me by the hands
(If I could turn back the hands)
I'm going down, yes I am
(If I could turn back)
Down on my bended knee, yeah

(If I could turn back)
And I'm gonna be right there until you return to me
(If I could turn back the hands)
(If I could turn back)

If I could just turn back that little clock on the wall
(If I could turn back)
Then I'd come to realize howmuch I love you

Love you love you love you
(If I could turn back the hands) -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, you'd still be mine
Funny, funny how time goes by
And blessings are missed in the wink of an eye

Why oh why oh why should one have to go on suffering
When every day I pray please come back to me
Repeat 1
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, whoa

Repeat 1
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
There'd be nothing I wouldn't do for you
(If I could turn back)
Forever honest and true to you
(If I could turn back)
If you accept me back in your heart, I love yuou
(If I could turn back the hands)
(If I could turn back)
That would be my will
(If I could turn back)
Darlin' I'm begging you to take me by the hands
(If I could turn back the hands)
I'm going down, yes I am
(If I could turn back)
Down on my bended knee, yeah
(If I could turn back)
And I'm gonna be right there until you return to me
(If I could turn back the hands)
(If I could turn back)
If I could just turn back that little clock on the wall
(If I could turn back)
Then I'd come to realize howmuch I love you
Love you love you love you
(If I could turn back the hands)
Funny, funny how time goes by
And blessings are missed in the wink of an eye
Why oh why oh why should one have to go on suffering
When every day I pray please come back to me

(If I could turn back)
Forever honest and true to you
(If I could turn back)
If you accept me back in your heart, I love yuou
(If I could turn back the hands)
(If I could turn back)
That would be my will
(If I could turn back)
Darlin' I'm begging you to take me by the hands

Love you love you love you
(If I could turn back the hands)
