“If I Could Turn Back Time”

If I could 1) ………..
If I could 2) ………. I’d take back those words that hurt you and you’d stay

I don’t know why I did the things I did I don’t know why I said the things I said
Pride’s like a 3) ………. it can cut deep inside
Words are like 4) ………. they 5) ………. sometimes.

I didn’t really mean to hurt you I didn’t wanna see you go I know I made you cry, but baby

[Chorus:]
If I could turn back time
If I could find a way
I’d take back those words that hurt you
And you’d stay
If I could 6) ………. the stars
I’d give them all to you
Then you’d love me, love me
Like you 7) ……….

If I could turn back time

My world was shattered I was 8) ……….
Like someone took a knife and drove it deep in my heart
You walked out that door I 9) ………. that I didn’t care
But I lost everything darling then and there

Too strong to tell you I was sorry
Too proud to tell you I was wrong
I know that I was 10) ………., and ooh…
