Hands Of Time
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.
How did I ever let you slip away?
Never knowing that I'll be singing this song someday,
And now I'm sinking,sinking to rise no more,
Ever since you closed the door.
**If I could turn,turn back the hands of time,
Then my darling,you'd still be mine,
If I could turn,turn back the hands of time,
Then my darling,you'd, you'd still be mine.**
Funny,funny how time goes by,
And blessing are missed in a wink of an eye,
Why,oh,why,oh,why,oh,should one go on suffering,
When everyday I breathe,please come back to me.
**If I could turn,turn back the hands of time,
Then my darling,you'd still be mine,
If I could turn,turn back the hands of time,
Then my darling,you'd,you'd still be mine .**
And you'd 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,
Woo,Woo,Wah.
If I could turn,turn back the hands of time,
Then my darling,you'd still be mine,
Wowowow,
If I could turn,turn back the hands of time,
Then my darling,you'd,you'd still be mine.
Oh I'll never hurt you,never do you wrong,
And never leave your side,turn back the hands,
Wowowow,
If I could just turn back that little clock on the wall,
Then I'd come to realise,
How much I love you,
Love you,
Love you,
Love you,
Love you,
Love you,
Love you,
Love you,
Love you,
Love you.
