A regretful lament about those 3rd and 4th chances that you blew. You were hers, until you weren’t. No way to get it back.

I know it took some time
For your broken heart to mend
And if you had your wish
You’d never see me again

Won’t you please hear me out
There’s something I need to say
I know I hurt you before
But I’m the one hurting today

Chorus:
Cause darlin’ I miss you more
Than you could ever know
If I could turn back time
And you were still mine
I’d never let you go

I’m sure it’s much too late
For me to say all these words
That you once listened for
But sadly you never heard

I’m just a slow learner
I know that’s a poor excuse
It took me far too long
To know how much I love you

Chorus:
Cause darlin’ I miss you more
Than you could ever know
If I could turn back time
And you were still mine
I’d never let you go

Bridge:
If I were a time traveler
I know just what I would do
I’d get inside my time machine
And head straight back to you

The second time around
You wouldn’t have to doubt
The way I feel about you
I would scream it out loud

I’d scream out I love you
And take your hand in mine
We would be together
Until the end of time

Chorus:
Cause darlin’ I miss you more
Than you could ever know
If I could turn back time
And you were still mine
I’d never let you go
