"There's No Turning Back Time" lyrics
"There's No Turning Back Time"
Reel after reel of old video tapes
Christmas Day mornings, kids on first dates
So many moments of laughter and tears
Too many faces no longer here
In a world where everything moves so fast
How could we know it was too good to last
And year after year the scrapbooks are stored
There for the viewing but mostly ignored
And oh for the chance to rewind and replay
And relive the summers of innocent days
And to find all of the things we've lost
And hold them close no matter the cost
And once again we look for a sign
Dancing with shadows that we've left behind
And though we try we hear the clock chime
We shatter the hourglass but ain't it a crime
There's no turning back time
Some days it feel we've just begun
But time and tide wait for no one
Another trip around the sun
As days rush by
Someone had said so long ago
Beware my child how fast it goes
The day will come before you know
To say goodbye
So raise your glass to Auld Lang Syne
And make a wish and pour the wine
And toast the days when stars aligned
And do not cry
Cause I know if I could do it all again
I would change so many things
But what good would it bring
So I'll take the loses with the gains
And make the best of what remains
And once again we look for a sign
Dancing with shadows that we've left behind
And though we try we hear the clock chime
We shatter the hourglass but ain't it a crime
There's no turning back time
There's no turning back time
Time, time, time
Time, time, time
Time, time, time
Thanks to Glenn for correcting these lyrics.
