Well my mom talked to yours this morning and I hear you’re doing fine
A new wife and a baby on your mind
I always thought that this would be the life for you and I
It was what I wanted and I let it pass me by
Sometimes I wish that I could turn back the hands of time

Chorus:
I need more than just a dream of what was possible
Doesn’t matter where I go I feel alone
all I have to hold are memories and I just can’t let go
Even though you’ll never know
I’ll always miss the love I left behind

All through high school and that last summer you were with me all the time
Until fall when I left you far behind
And in every conversation it would never cross my mind
That I took you for granted – how could I be so blind
What I would give if I could turn back the hands of time

Chorus:

I know I will be alright
I can almost sleep at night
Maybe time will heal this broken heart of mine
If I have the chance again
I will take fate by the hand
I won’t make the same mistake again
