[Verse 1]
Well, I've got a little tune that I could hum to turn back time
Back to all our better days and nights
Well, now what a fool to figure that forever you'd be mine
Well, I wrote a little rhyme to make it right

[Verse 2]
And I found a pretty way to say
That I can't throw it all away
A little song to make you stay

[Verse 3]
Well, I've been lookin' backward now 'til I've damn-near gone blind
Searching for a pretty sight to see
I'm finding out the only thing I'm needing now to find
Is finally standing right in front of me

[Verse 4]
And I think I stole a melody
To stop you now from leaving me
A little song to make you see

[Verse 5]
Well, you could kill the engine and just cool it for a while
And I could do my best just to keep it light
And maybe for a moment you'll remember how to smile
Maybe we're forgettin' how to fight
[Verse 6]
Well, you don't want me anymore
Just wait until I count to four
And you're tapping on the hardwood floor
And I'll sing it for you 'til I'm blue
For any good that it could do
A little song to pull us through

[Verse 7]
Well, I've got a little tune that I could hum to turn back time
Back to all our better days and nights
Well, now what a fool to figure that forever you'd be mine
Well, I wrote a little rhyme to make it right
