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 my darlin` 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 plead 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
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`11 be nothing I wouldn`t do for you
(If I could turn back)
Forever hones 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 my 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, love you
If I could turn back the hands

How did I ever let you slip away
