The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There were words between us
Words that hurt inside
Still that's just no reason to say the word "good-bye"
We can't let go of something beautiful
We can't just let it die
Can't you and I just try to find one reason
To just give us one more try
[Chorus:]
Couldn't love heal the pain?
Couldn't time take the tears away?
Couldn't you, you and me
Try again
Couldn't we
Couldn't you, couldn't me, couldn't we
Couldn't we
Start the story over
Turn the page tonight
There's nothing wrong between us
That love could not make right
Can't we forgive and let our hearts forget
Let the love back inside
Can't you and I just get back to those feelings
And feel them just one more time?
[Chorus]
Couldn't we turn back the hands of time
To a time when love was right
To those nights when the touch was sweet
Can't we find our way back
Before we lose everything
Couldn't love heal the pain?
Couldn't time take the tears away?
Couldn't you, you and me
Try again
Couldn't we stay together?
Couldn't we make it better?
Couldn't we turn the page
And start the story over?
Couldn't we bring the love back?
Couldn't we have one more chance?
Couldn't we hold each other just a little closer?
[Repeat verse to fade]
