[Verse 1]
In life nothing's certain
You'll never know when it'll happen
Some burn out while some fade away
It doesn't matter, we're heading that way

[Pre-Chorus]
If I had the time
I'll spend it with you

[Verse 2]
Time gets you old and weary
Like a lifeless ordinary
Some burn out while some fade away
I don't want you to go, I want you to stay

[Pre-Chorus]
If I could turn back the time
I'd spend it with you

[Chorus]
I want you to know (even though you're gone)
That I'm drowning in tears
I wish you were here (and hear me say)
Believe me, I'm sorry
[Instrumental break]

[Verse 3]
Feels like everything's undone
Peace of mind, still I haven't found
And time will heal those broken mends
I know it will come, but when will it end?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
If I could turn back the time
I'd spend it with you

[Chorus]
I want you to know (even though you're gone)
That I'm drowning in tears
I wish you were here (and hear me say)
Believe me, I'm sorry

[Bridge]
I want you to know (I want you to know)
I want you to know

[Guitar solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
If I could turn back the time
I'll spend it with you
[Chorus]
I want you to know (even though you're gone)
That I'm drowning in tears
I wish you were here (and hear me say)
Believe me, I'm sorry
I want you to know (even though you're gone)
That I'm drowning in tears
I wish you were here (and hear me say)
Believe me, I'm sorry
