Turn Back the Hands of Time Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, darlin', I'm so lonely without you
I can't sleep at night
Just thinkin' about you
But if I had the chance to start all over
I'd be wishing today on a four leaf clover
And leaving would be the last thing on my mind

[Chorus]
If I could turn back the hands of time (If I could turn back the hands of time)
If I could turn back the hands of time (If I could turn back the hands of time)

[Verse 2]
Oh, darlin', I can't hold out much longer
But the pain is so deep
And the hurt's getting stronger
But if I had just one more try
I'd be yours alone, until the day that I die
And we'd have a love so divine

[Chorus]
If I could turn back the hands of time (If I could turn back the hands of time)
If I could turn back the hands of time (If I could turn back the hands of time)

[Bridge]
All right, come on
[Verse 3]
Oh, darlin', plеase
Please lеt me come back home
Your love's been so good to me, baby
And I've realized without it, I can't go on
Because you're the other half that makes my life complete
If I had one more chance we'd have a love so sweet
And leaving would be the last thing on my mind
Leaving would be the last thing on my mind
I said leaving would be the last thing on my mind

[Chorus]
If I could turn back the hands of time (If I could turn back the hands of time)
(If I could turn back the hands of time)
If I could turn back the hands of time (If I could turn back the hands of time)

[Outro]
(If I could turn back the hands of time) If I could just have another chance, darling
(If I could turn back the hands of time)
Just give me one more chance (If I could turn back the hands of time)
I wanna turn back the hands of time (If I could turn back the hands of time)
(If I could turn back the hands of time) I'm gonna turn back the hands of time
(If I could turn—)

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 [?]
