Years Later (Acoustic)
Turn back the hands of time and then
Can we turn on the lights again and talk about where we went wrong?
It's not a feeling that I've missed
It's like regret, this ache
This feeling that I think that I was wrong
Was it a word, was it a smile
Was it a secret in the night and did it make you feel alone?
'Cause if I could go back in time and turn the lights on
Deep inside do you think we'd be on our own?
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say OK this is not enough for me
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say you're not for me
Years later here I'm sitting
Years later still I'm thinking
Years later and I'm drinking
Writing these rhymes
Wasting my time
Singing a song about you
Was it something from the start?
Or a light bulb in the dark?
Did we write fairytales and lies?
'Cause yes we touched but did we talk?
We danced and laughed but were we walking
With our hands over our eyes?
And if you hadn't said don't go
And if you hadn't said please know that you are mine the only one
Would I have stayed and tried again?
Would I've been more than just a friend?
Would I've grown up to be the one?
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say OK this is not enough for me
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say you're not for me yeah
Years later here I'm sitting
Years later still I'm thinking
Years later now I'm drinking
Writing these rhymes
Wasting my time
Singing a song about you
And if I hadn't just said no
And if I hadn't said please go
Would you have gone?
Would you have gone?
And if I hadn't said please stop
And if I hadn't begged please stop
Would you have stopped?
Would you have stopped?
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say OK this is not enough for me
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say you're not for me
You stopped and you turned away, you're not for me
Can we turn on the lights again and talk about where we went wrong?
It's not a feeling that I've missed
It's like regret, this ache
This feeling that I think that I was wrong
Was it a word, was it a smile
Was it a secret in the night and did it make you feel alone?
'Cause if I could go back in time and turn the lights on
Deep inside do you think we'd be on our own?
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say OK this is not enough for me
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say you're not for me
Years later here I'm sitting
Years later still I'm thinking
Years later and I'm drinking
Writing these rhymes
Wasting my time
Singing a song about you
Was it something from the start?
Or a light bulb in the dark?
Did we write fairytales and lies?
'Cause yes we touched but did we talk?
We danced and laughed but were we walking
With our hands over our eyes?
And if you hadn't said don't go
And if you hadn't said please know that you are mine the only one
Would I have stayed and tried again?
Would I've been more than just a friend?
Would I've grown up to be the one?
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say OK this is not enough for me
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say you're not for me yeah
Years later here I'm sitting
Years later still I'm thinking
Years later now I'm drinking

Wasting my time
Singing a song about you
And if I hadn't just said no
And if I hadn't said please go
Would you have gone?
Would you have gone?
And if I hadn't said please stop
And if I hadn't begged please stop
Would you have stopped?
Would you have stopped?
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say OK this is not enough for me
Maybe I was right to walk away
To stop and turn and say you're not for me
You stopped and you turned away, you're not for me
