Hands of Time

Another day has gone

It’s been far too long

With a heart as cold as snow

I choose to let you go

I never gave us a chance

Now I pray for one last dance

Here alone, because we are apart

If I could go back then I would have stayed

Now I pray you come to claim your held place within my heart

You feel in love, I ran away

You gave to me your all

I didn’t give you much

I choose to let us fall

And now I long for your touch

Your hand I once held dear

Then I let go of it in fear

Never knowing I would someday feel weak without you near

Now I see all of life clear

Come back to me

Let me hold you close

This time around

I won’t let go

Whisper in your ear and let you know

You are my soul now make me whole

For the way I feel for you I hope it’s not too late

Understand that if I could I would correct my every mistake

I would undo my every wrong

All the things I should have said to you I would sing in song

I would rewrite the pain and feel it in with love

I would undo the coldness of my heart and feel you up with kisses and hugs

I would give you a dozen roses for every tear you cried

And when you needed me the most I would be close by your side

I would have not only told you what you needed to hear but meant every line

Written a poem dedicated to only you filled with rhyme

I would have never caused you pain

Healing you when you were sore

And when you were lonely, even when it rains

I would be at your front door

I would have been patient as I wait to see your face

I would have never rushed and made every decision in haste

I would have been there for every birthday baring gifts

If I could I would see to it that cupid’s arrows never missed

I would feel you with joy when you were down

I would finally fall in love if I had a second time around

I promise if I could I would have never placed another before you

Then you would still be mine and my word still true

Instead I did the very thing I sought not to do

And I am deeply sorry with no excuse

If only I would have loved you would still be mine

I’d give it all to turn back the Hands of Time
