Rolling Back The Rivers In Time

I always admitted pity
Cause I was getting lonely
Oh-oh I wasn't lonely
Oh baby without you
I always have hated pity
Needed you to hold me
Oh boy you should've known me
I didn't know how to
Gone are the days of magic
Those times were cool
I tried to make love not hate
What was I to do?
Oh the peace was playing
We danced all night
We were kids then
Til dark turned to night
Wa-ooooh!
Rolling back the rivers in time
Can't wait
Got to see his face somewhere
Wa-ooooh!
Holding back the minutes gone by
Someday
Got to see his face oh yeah
There's a feeling in my soul
That sets my heart alight
I tell ya there's a feeling in my soul
That tells me you're all mine
There's an arrow in my heart
Just ???? at seventeen
I tell you there's a shadow in my heart
That tells me what could've been
Wa-ooooh!
Rolling back the rivers in time
Can't wait
Got to see his face somewhere
Wa-ooooh!
Holding back the minutes gone by
Someday
Got to see his face oh yeah
Doesn't really matter
I felt nothing better at all (ooooh-ooooh)
Sending him a letter
I know I won't regret it at all (ooooh-ooooh)
Doesn't really matter
A miracle can happen for sure (ooooh-ooooh)
I'd rather wait forever
Then baby never have it at all
Wa-ooooh!
Rolling back the rivers in time
Can't wait
Got to see his face somewhere
Wa-ooooh!
Holding back the minutes gone by
Someday
Got to see his face oh yeah
Wa-ooooh!
Rolling back the rivers in time
Can't wait
Got to see his face somewhere
Wa-ooooh!
Holding back the minutes gone by
Someday
Got to see his face oh yeah
