If I Could Turn Back Time (Country Version)

Verse 1

Faded photograph on the dashboard

Old dirt road where we used to run

I keep that memory like a pocket watch

That ticked away before I was done

I'd trade a thousand sunsets

For one more morning with your laugh

If I could spin the hands around

I'd find my way back

Pre-Chorus

Nobody taught me how to hold on

To something slipping through my hands

Chorus

If I could turn back time

I'd slow the reel down line by line

I'd keep your boots beside my door

And let the days rain down once more

If I could turn back time

I'd never let you cross that line

Verse 2

Grandpa's clock still sits in the hallway

Wind it up every Sunday night

It keeps his rhythm but it can't recite

The stories that we left behind

Pre-Chorus

Nobody warned me years move fast

When you're busy trying to make them last

Chorus

If I could turn back time

I'd slow the reel down line by line

I'd keep your boots beside my door

And let the days rain down once more

If I could turn back time

I'd never let you cross that line

Bridge

Maybe change is just a river

And memory a stone

I carry every skipping rock

I could not call my own

Chorus

If I could turn back time

I'd slow the reel down line by line

I'd keep your boots beside my door

And let the days rain down once more

If I could turn back time

I'd never let you cross that line

Outro

Mm-mm

If I could turn back time
