Lyrics

[00:22.61] Could've given you everything that you need
[00:27.60] but I cannot turn back the years
[00:33.70] The perfect love was all you wanted from me
[00:38.70] but I cannot turn back the years
[00:44.09] So we have to be strong,
[00:47.24] and I'm finding that hard
[00:50.16] we have to move on,
[00:52.03] but no matter how hard I try
[00:56.16] if your heart's in pieces,
[00:57.73] you look for the truth
[01:01.46] and when I look
[01:03.07] deep down inside I know,
[01:08.47] it's too bad I love you
[01:14.88] it's too bad I love you
[01:18.56] Music......
[01:30.92] Sometimes. hits me in the morning,
[01:34.35] hits me at night
[01:36.97] that I cannot turn back the years
[01:42.62] so I look out my window,
[01:45.35] turn off my light
[01:47.67] but I cannot turn back the years
[01:53.67] Can't make it seem easy,
[01:56.64] when you're all that I see
[01:58.86] can't live in a dream
[02:01.64] and I won't serenade the truth
[02:05.22] people are hurting
[02:07.08] and they're looking to me
[02:10.11] and I look at you
[02:12.43] there's nothing more to say,
[02:17.89] it's too bad I love you
[02:20.41] But I'm never gonna give it up
[02:25.25] * * *
[02:28.08] Music...
[03:03.43] All that I lived for,
[03:05.59] all that I dreamed
[03:08.07] but I cannot turn back the years
[03:13.66] You're the water i drink,
[03:16.13] you're the air that I breathe
[03:18.70] but i cannot turn back the years
[03:25.27] So we have to be strong,
[03:27.14] and I'm finding that hard
[03:30.11] we have to move on,
[03:35.36] but no matter how hard I try
[03:36.57] if your heart's in pieces,
[03:38.33] you look for the truth
[03:41.56] and when I look
[03:43.88] deep down inside I know,
[03:49.37] it's too bad I love you
[03:52.35] But I'm never gonna give it up
