Could ve given you everything that you need
but I cannot turn back the years
The perfect love was all you wanted from me
but I cannot turn back the years
So we have to be strong, and I m finding that hard
we have to move on, but no matter how hard I try
if your heart s in pieces, you look for the truth
and when I look deep down inside I know, it s too bad I love you

Sometimes. hits me in the morning, hits me at night
that I cannot turn back the years
so I look out my window, turn off my light
but I cannot turn back the years
Can t make it seem easy, when you re all that I see
can t live in a dream and I won t serenade the truth
people are hurting and they re looking to me
and I look at you there s nothing more to say, it s too bad I love you
But I m never gonna give it up

All that I lived for, all that I dreamed
but I cannot turn back the years
You re the water i drink, you re the air that I breathe
but i cannot turn back the years
So we have to be strong, and I m finding that hard
we have to move on, but no matter how hard I try
if your heart s in pieces, you look for the truth
and when I look deep down inside I know, it s too bad I love you
But I m never gonna give it up
