"The Reel Of Time" lyrics

"The Reel Of Time"

Oh yeah
Ooh baby
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Winter's rain is overflowing
Where a spring love once was growing
Turn back the reel of time
When love was mine, so sweet and kind
Now through tears of lonely sorrow
I see a storm coming tomorrow
When my mind speaks your name
I can't stand the pain, I'm going insane

The slamming of the door, your footsteps fading fast
Are locked inside my mind, memories of the past
Now in despair, I keep trying to go back there
When love was true, baby, oh baby, I need you
Yeah, yeah, yeah

This hurt my heart's embracing
Is just a sample of what I'm facing
Turn back the reel of time
When love was mine, so sweet and kind

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Mmm
(Bring back the days when love was still sweet to me)
Ooh
(Baby)
Ooh

Holding on to my pride, I let you walk away
When down on my knees, I should have begged you to stay
With hands of glue, I should have held on to you
Now what can I do? Ah, baby, baby, I love you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Fate, deal me another hand
Let me play that scene again
Turn back the reel of time
When love was mine, so sweet and kind
Oh, so I can find peace of mind
Turn back the reel, the reel of time

Oh, baby, baby, love me (Baby, baby, love me)
Like in dreams of yesterday (Baby, baby, love me)
Ooh-ooh-ooh
(Turn back to the days I could see)
(There was love there waiting for me)
(Not an empty room without a key)
Turn back, oh baby, the reel of time
