"Rolling Back The Rivers In Time" lyrics

I always admitted pity
'Cause I was getting lonely
Oh-oh, I was lonely
Oh, baby, without you
I always, I hid it, pity
I needed you to hold me
Oh, boy, you shoulda known me
I didn't know how to

Gone are the days of magic
Those times were cool
I tried to make love, not hate
What was I to do?
Oh, The Police were playing
We danced all night
We were kissing 'til dark turned to light

Ah-ooh, rolling back the rivers in time
Can't wait, got to see his face somewhere
Ah-ooh, holding back the minutes gone by
Someday, got to see his face, oh, yeah

There's a feeling in my soul
That sets my heart alight
I tell you, there's a feeling in my soul
That tells me you're all mine
There's an arrow in my heart
You sent at seventeen
I tell you there's a shadow in my heart
That tells of what could've been

Ah-ooh, rolling back the rivers in time
Can't wait, got to see his face somewhere
Ah-ooh, holding back the minutes gone by
Someday, got to see his face, oh, yeah

Doesn't really matter, I feel nothing better at all (Ooh-ooh)
Sending him a letter, I know I won't regret it at all (Ooh-ooh)
It doesn't really matter, a miracle can happen for sure (Ooh-ooh)
I'd rather wait forever, babe, then never have it at all

Ah-ooh, rolling back the rivers in time
Can't wait, got to see his face somewhere
Ah-ooh, holding back the minutes gone by
Someday, got to see his face, oh, yeah

Ah-ooh, rolling back the rivers in time
Can't wait, got to see his face somewhere
Ah-ooh, holding back the minutes gone by
Someday, got to see his face, oh, yeah
