Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Should’ve left that bar at midnight
Should’ve turned my truck toward home
Phone was buzzin’ on the dash there
You were callin’ all alone
Thought I had a couple hours
Thought your love would never fade
Played a game with all your patience
Like I had it made
[Chorus]
If I could turn back time
I’d leave those keys on the table
I’d be there holdin’ you
Not tryin’ to act so able
Every stupid little choice
Built the distance in your eyes
Now I’m talkin’ to the ceiling
You’re the echo in my mind
If I could turn back time
[Verse 2]
I remember slammin’ doors and
Sayin’ words I can’t unsay
Watched you fold your favorite T‑shirt
Like you’d finally packed your faith
You just stood there in the hallway
With a suitcase and a prayer
I was too proud to say “I’m sorry”
Now you’re nowhere there
[Chorus]
If I could turn back time
I’d bite my tongue in the kitchen
I’d pull you into my arms
When you said you felt me missin’
Every stubborn, selfish choice
Built a wall I couldn’t climb
Now your picture on the dresser
Is the judge of every night
If I could turn back time
[Bridge]
[Violin climbs, low and raw]
All these what‑ifs, all these why’s
Keep me wide awake at five
I’d trade every drop in this bottle
Just to see you pull in the drive
(oh, come back home)
[Chorus]
If I could turn back time
I’d learn your heart like a bible
I’d make your quiet hurts
My only kind of idol
Every hard‑headed decision
Cost the love I called “just fine”
Now I’m lonesome with my lessons
You’re the one I can’t rewind
If I could turn back time
If I could turn back time
