Can’t Turn Back The Years Lyrics
Phil Collins
no matter how much you think you want or need it, the past has to remain just that, the past...
Couldve given you everything that you need
But I cannot turn back the years
The perfect love was all you wanted from me
But I cannot turn back the years
So we have to be strong, and Im finding that hard
We have to move on, but no matter how hard I try
If your hearts in pieces, you look for the truth
And when I look deep down inside I know, its too bad I love you
Sometimes. hits me in the morning, hits me at night
That I cannot turn back the years
So I look out my window, turn off my light
But I cannot turn back the years
Cant make it seem easy, when youre all that I see
Cant live in a dream and I wont serenade the truth
People are hurting and theyre looking to me
And I look at you theres nothing more to say, its too bad I love you
But Im never gonna give it up
All that I lived for, all that I dreamed
But I cannot turn back the years
Youre the water I drink, youre the air that I breathe
But I cannot turn back the years
So we have to be strong, and Im finding that hard
We have to move on, but no matter how hard I try
If your hearts in pieces, you look for the truth
And when I look deep down inside I know, its too bad I love you
But Im never gonna give it up
