Turn Back the Clock Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Another day has ended
And I still can't sleep
Remembering my yesterdays
I begin to weep
If I could have it over
Live my life again
I wouldn'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

[Verse 2]
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
Oh, how I realise
They were the best years of my life

[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
[Bridge]
You might say it's just the case of giving up, no
But without these memories, where is the love?
So where is the love?

If I could have it over
Live my life again
Oh, I wouldn'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

Why can'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
I'd go back if I could

[Outro]
Oh, I wouldn't change a single day
Don't let the memories slip away
I wouldn't change a single day
Don't let the memories slip away

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
