Cher - If I Could Turn Back Time

If I could turn back time

If I could find a way

I'd take back those words that had hurt you

And you'd stay

I don't know why I did the things I did

I don't know why I said the things I said

Pride's like a knife, it can cut deep inside

Words are like weapons, they wound sometimes.

I didn't really mean to hurt you

I didn't wanna see you go

I know I made you cry, but baby

[Chorus:]

If I could turn back time

If I could find a way

I'd take back those words that had hurt you

And you'd stay

If I could reach the stars

I'd give them all to you

Then you'd love me, love me

Like you used to do

If I could turn back time

My world was shattered, I was torn apart

Like someone took a knife and drove it deep in my heart

You walked out that door, I swore that I didn't care

But I lost everything, darling, then and there

Too strong to tell you I was sorry

Too proud to tell you I was wrong

I know that I was blind, and ooh...

[Chorus]

Ooohh

If I could turn back time

If I could turn back time

If I could turn back time

ooh baby

I didn't really mean to hurt you

I didn't want to see you go

I know I made you cry

Ooohh

[Chorus #2]

If I could turn back time

If I could find a way

I'd take back those words that hurt you

If I could reach the stars

I'd give them all to you

Then you'd love me, love me

Like you used to do

If I could turn back time (turn back time)

If I could find a way (find a way)

Then baby, maybe, maybe

You'd stay

[to fade]

Reach the stars

If I could reach the stars
