Turn the Clock Back

Turn the clock back just a moment or two
In anti-clockwise conversation I could un-erode us two
If I had no secrets buried behind
I'd feel love, certain love, for the first time

Turn the clock back just a moment or two
I'd confess all my wants my desires for you
Oh the guilt, all this guilt, for what never was said
Such silence is a torture to a conscience
And time not well spent

Turn the clock back just a moment or two
I'd have learnt enough to settle down and not to run from you
All this hiding, this hiding - the hidden stuff I've lost
And where to start searching for stuff I forgot

Turn the clock back, turn the clocks back, just a moment or two
I'd be better, I'd be perfect, I'd be everything for you
If I had no cause to be vicious inside
I'd defend only love, 'cause love is all I desire

How stupidly, how stupidly I stumbled into certainty
In knowing I, in seeing I, could never undo anytime
What's said is said, what's done is done
I can't undo who I've become
How wickedly, how wickedly life has made a lesson out of me

Turn the clock back just a moment or two
I'd be everything this life would have wanted me to
No mistakes, no hiding place, no loveless lies to lock inside
I'd be boring, I'd be thankless, I'd be fucking tired
