i've been away long enough to see
what we had was worth so much to me
and i hope, we can, turn back the hands of time
it's not too late if only we could try （we've only got to try）
this time i know, love's a crazy game
this time i know, the rules will never change
this time i know, a winning hand you never throw away
i was lost in a dream but now i finally see
what i was looking for was there in front of me
now i hope we can turn back the hands of time
something better i know i'll never find
i know i'll never find
this time, i know loves a crazy game
this time, i know theres got to be some pain
this time, i know...
i didn't know what we had until it was gone
this time i know
this time i know, love's a crazy game
this time i know, the rules will never change
this time i know, a winning hand you never throw away
this time i know
