Lyrics

If I Could Do It All Over Again

by Robert Ramage

(Tempo / Feel:

Mid-tempo rock / heartland groove — open chords, steady drums, reflective but hopeful)

Intro:

Yeah…

Funny how time teaches without askin...

Verse 1

If I could do it all over again

I’d still run hard, still jump right in

But I’d listen more than I’d defend

Learn the cost of “right” before I’d win

I’d worry less ‘bout what folks say

Stop chasin’ ghosts that fade away

Spend more nights just stayin’ home

Less time feelin’ like I’m alone

Verse 2

If I could do it all over again

I’d take better care of the man within

Stretch my back, pace my pride

Know when to push and when to slide

I’d save my fire, not burn it fast

Learn the future don’t live in the past

Put my phone down, look in her eyes

Let some moments just pass me by

Chorus

If I could do it all over again

I wouldn’t trade the scars or the skin

Every bruise taught me who I am

I’d still walk this road — just hold her hand

I’d love the same, just not so blind

Fight the right fights, leave some behind

No, I wouldn’t change where I’ve been

But I’d do it wiser… if I could do it all over again

Verse 3

I’d say “I’m tired” without shame

Admit some losses before the blame

Stop carryin’ weight that ain’t mine

Let some fires burn out with time

I’d laugh more loud, hold grudges less

Know peace ain’t found in excess

Take Sunday slow, breathe it in

Thank God for where I’ve been

Bridge

Time don’t rewind, it just moves on

Leaves us choices, right and wrong

But every mile I’ve walked through fire

Built the bones of my desire

Verse 4

If I could do it all over again

I’d still believe in love and friends

Still take chances, still fall down

Just learn when it’s time to turn around

I wouldn’t trade this life I’ve known

Every step led me back home

The road was hard, but here I stand

A better man with wiser plans

Final Chorus

If I could do it all over again

I’d still be me, just softer when

The world comes swingin’ hard and fast

I’d hold the good, release the past

I’d love the same, just give more grace

Leave a little room for fate

No, I wouldn’t change where I’ve been

I’d just live it deeper… if I could do it all over again

Outro

You don’t get a redo…

You get a tomorrow.

And that’s enough.
