[whisper] [Intro: Soft synths] I wish I could go back, just one more night Try to fix the wrongs, make the wrongs feel right [Verse 1] I yelled at my parents, I caused a fight Now I can’t stop thinking about that night I cheated on my wife, I know it was blind And I left my little son alone behind [Pre-Chorus] I keep wishing somehow I could rewind To heal the pain I left behind [Chorus] If I had a time machine, I’d go back Hold my son tight, never lose track Stop the fights, stop the lies, stop the tears And love the people I hurt all these years [Verse 2] I chased some high that left me cold Broke every promise I swore I’d hold I ran from the truth, I ran from my shame Now all I feel is regret and blame [Pre-Chorus] If I could, I’d turn back one night Say “I’m sorry,” and try to make it right [Chorus] If I had a time machine, I’d go back Hold my son tight, never lose track Stop the fights, stop the lies, stop the tears And love the people I hurt all these years [Solo guitar, 16 bar] [Bridge] I’d tell my past self to slow down To care more, not let love drown Every mistake I made, I’d erase Try to see their hearts, not just my space [Final Chorus] If I had a time machine, I’d go back Stop the pain, stop the hurt, stay on track Hold my son close, never let him fall Love the ones I hurt, give my all I’d be honest, kind, finally brave Erase the nights I let my demons play If I had a time machine, I’d go back And maybe… I’d finally find my track [Outro: Soft fade, whisper] If I could turn back time… I really would (please .... forgive me....)
