If I Could Turn Back Time Lyrics

[STAR]
If I could turn back time
If I could find a way
I'd take back those words that’ve 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 knife, it can cut deep inside
Words are like weapons, they wound sometimes

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

[STAR & WOMEN]
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 reach the stars
I'd give 'em all to you
And you’d love me, love me
Like you used to do
If I could turn back time
[STAR]
My world was shattered, I was torn apart
Like someone took a knife and drove it deep in my heart
You walked out that door I swore that I didn’t care
But I lost everything, darlin', then and there

Too strong to tell you I was sorry
Too proud to tell you I was wrong
I know that I was blind but darlin’

[STAR & ENSEMBLE]
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 reach the stars
I'd give ’em all to you
And you'd love me, love me

[STAR]
Like you used to do
Oh, if I could turn back time

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
