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 [Chorus] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Chorus] 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 you (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 how much I love you Love you love you love you (If I could turn back the hands)
