Could've given you everything that you need But I cannot turn back the years The perfect love was all you wanted from me But I cannot turn back the years So we have to be strong, and I'm finding that hard We have to move on, but no matter how hard I try If your heart's in pieces, you look for the truth And when I look deep down inside I know, it's too bad I love you Sometimes, hits me in the morning, hits me at night That I cannot turn back the years So I look out my window, turn off my light But I cannot turn back the years Can't make it seem easy, when you're all that I see Can't live in a dream and I won't serenade the truth People are hurting and they've looking to me And I look at you there's nothing more to say, it's too bad I love you But I'm never gonna give it up All that I lived for, all the I dreamed But I cannot turn back the years You're the water I drink, you're the air that I breath But I cannot turn back the years So we have to be strong, and I'm finding that hard We have to move on, but no matter how hard I try If your heart's in pieces, you look for the truth And when I look deep down inside I know, it's too bad I love you But I'm never gonna give it up
