If I Could Turn Back Time

I like this song for several reasons, the rythmn, the attitude that Cher sings it with, but most importantly for the lyrics. I think everyone on some level or another can identify with them. Who hasn't said or done something that they wish they could change or take back? From the sound of her voice when she sings this, I'm guessing Cher has more than a few moments like that in her life, I know I have in mine.

If I Could Turn Back Time by Cher

If I could turn back time
If I could find a way
I'd take back those words that have 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

If I could turn back time
If I could find a way
I'd take back those words that have 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 somebody took a knife
And drove it deep in my heart
When you walked out that door
I swore that I didn't care
But I lost every thing 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 darling

If I could turn back time
If I could turn back time
If I could turn back time, Baby
I didnt really mean to hurt you
I didn't wanna see you go
I know I made you cry

If I could turn back time
If I could turn back time
If I could turn back time, Baby
I didnt really mean to hurt you
I didn't wanna see you go
I know I made you cry
