  • If I had another chance tonight
    I'd try to tell you that the things we had were right
    Time can't erase the love we shared
    But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared

    Now you're gone, I'm really not the same
    I guess I have myself to blame
    Time can't erase the things we said
    But it gives me time to realize that you're the one instead

    You know I won't hold you back now
    The love we had just can't be found
    You know I can't hold you back now

    Now that I'm alone it gives me time
    To think about the years that you were mine
    Time can't erase the love we shared
    But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared

    You know I won't hold you back now
    The love we had just can't be found
    Listen to me baby
    You know I can't hold you back now

    You know I won't hold you back now
    The love we had just can't be found
    You know I can't hold you back now
    The love we had just can't be found

    You know I can't hold you back now
    The love we had just can't be found
    You know I can't hold you back now
    The love we had just can't be found Writer/s: STEVEN LEE LUKATHER
