0:22Could've given you everything that you need
0:27But I cannot turn back the years
0:33The perfect love was all you wanted from me
0:38But I cannot turn back the years
0:44So we have to be strong
0:47And I'm finding that hard
0:50We have to move on
0:52But no matter how hard I try
0:56If your heart's in pieces
0:57You look for the truth
1:01And when I look
1:03Deep down inside I know
1:08It's too bad I love you
1:14It's too bad I love you
1:18Music
1:30Sometimes hits me in the morning
1:34Hits me at night
1:36That I cannot turn back the years
1:42So I look out my window
1:45Turn off my light
1:47But I cannot turn back the years
1:53Can't make it seem easy
1:56When you're all that I see
1:58Can't live in a dream
2:01And I won't serenade the truth
2:05People are hurting
2:07And they're looking to me
2:10And I look at you
2:12There's nothing more to say
2:17It's too bad I love you
2:20But I'm never gonna give it up
2:25* * *
2:28Music
3:03All that I lived for
3:05All that I dreamed
3:08But I cannot turn back the years
3:13You're the water i drink
3:16You're the air that I breathe
3:18But i cannot turn back the years
3:25So we have to be strong
3:27And I'm finding that hard
3:30We have to move on
3:35But no matter how hard I try
3:36If your heart's in pieces
3:38You look for the truth
3:41And when I look
3:43Deep down inside I know
3:49It's too bad I love you
3:52But I'm never gonna give it up
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
It's too bad I love you
Music
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
* * *
Music
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
