Don't Turn Back Time

He stole your heart

Now the bastard holds it high

He stole your heart

But remember you owned it first

He said all the right things to make you feel alright

Love makes you soar but leaves you flying blind

It’s the same things you see only in a different light

Without him you don’t know who you are

But you’ve been the same person all along

A different tune but the same old song



Now it’s down to you against yourself in a fight

You’ve made it this far, don’t try to turn back time



Now it’s the story of everyone’s life

You can’t get him out of your head

Hanging out with your friends tonight

They distract you for a little while

Its too early to be closing time

You don’t want to go back home

You can’t bear the thought of being alone

The remedy for feeling is getting stoned

Maybe we should be alone together sometime

Let’s get fucked up and let the worst roll by



Now it’s down to you against yourself in a fight

You’ve made it this far, don’t try to turn back time



Let go off all the lies

All the fake reasons you ever smiled

Undo all the things he drew

Don’t stop until you’ve erased all the lines

Scream if your thoughts are too much hold

You don’t have to carry them anymore

I’ve never enjoyed seeing you cry

Shed those tears my darling until the well of pain is dry

Hold on to all that is you

You’re the one thing that’ll get you through



Now it’s down to you against yourself in a fight

You’ve made it this far, don’t try to turn back time
