Time Machine

If I had a time machine there's so much I could do
If I could make things turn out right, then dreams just might come true
If I could turn back the clock, I'd start where things went wrong
I'd take the bullets from the gun, defuse the smoking bomb

But I can't go back in time,
there's no replay, we can't rewind,
what's done is done, so move right on,
before this day is gone.

If I had a time machine, I could rewrite the plot,
I'd stop the horror in its tracks, I'd block that fatal shot.
If I could turn back the past, erase all my mistakes,
I'd take away your pain and fear, abolish all heartache.

But I can't go back in time,
there's no replay, we can't rewind,
what's done is done, so move right on,
before this day is gone.

If I knew then what I know now,
could the world be different somehow?
But life is short so don't hesitate,
the day is getting late.

No we can't go back in time,
there's no replay, we can't rewind,
what's done is done, so move right on,
before this day is gone.
Before the day is gone.
