Turn Back The Clock
-
Another day is ended
And I still canâ??t sleep
Remembering my yesterdays
I begin to weep
If I could have it over
Live my life again
I wouldnâ??t change a single day
[Chorus]
I wish that I could turn back the clock
Bring the wheels of time to a stop
Back to the days when life was so much better
Lying here in silence
Picture in my hand
Of a boy I still resemble
But I no longer understand
And as the tears run freely
How I realise they were the best years of my life
[Chorus]
You might say itâ??s just
A case of giving up
No
But without these memories where is the love
Where is the love
If I could have it over
Live my life again
I wouldnâ??t change a single day
[Chorus]
Why canâ??t I turn back the clock
Bring the wheels of time to a stop
Back to the days
Oh no no
I remember when
Life was so good
Iâ??d go back Iâ??d I could
Oh oh I wouldnâ??t change a single day
Donâ??t let the memories slip away
I wouldnâ??t change a single day
Donâ??t let the memories slip away Writer/s: CLARK DATCHLER
