I tried so hard to walk away,

Tried so hard but here I stay.

Alone, (Alone)

And cold, (And cold)

Can anybody hear me?

The snow that falls outside the door,

Melts away my heart.

Afraid and cold and all alone, (All alone)

Can anybody rescue me?

Dreaming of life or living the dream,

This world that I know just ain’t what it seams.

No I can’t, turn back time,

Turn back to you.

Cos life all alone,

It just ain’t worth a damn.

Loneliness, holding back the love,

Like water held back by the dam.

No I can’t turn back time,

Can’t turn back to you.

Can’t turn back the clock,

Can’t run back to you.

Afraid and alone,

So cold and alone,

Can anybody rescue me?

Believe me when I say,

There is nothing that I won’t do.

I’ll try until my final breath,

To make all your dreams come true.

If your life is like a puzzle,

I’ll connect up all the dots.

I’ll sell you my heart; I’ll sell you my soul.

Sell you everything that I’ve got.

Everything that I’ve got…

You swore our love would never part,

You swore but lied right from the start.

And I’m cold, (So cold)

All alone, (Alone)

Oh so hard to breath.

For seven years we lived a lie,

Seven years watching love die.

Your heart was cold and empty,

Now I see. (Now I see)

Lied with your heart, saw truth in your eyes,

Lead me astray, now I realise.

You were cruel, I’m a fool,

A fool in love with you…

Was I dreaming of life or living the dream?

The world that I know just ain’t what it seams.

You were cruel, (So cruel)

Oh so cruel, (So cruel)

No I can’t turn back to you,

Turn back to you…

(Break/Instrumental)

No I can’t turn back,

No I can’t turn back to you.

No I can’t turn back time,

No I can’t turn back to you.

I can’t wind back the clock,

Can’t turn and run back to you.

No I can’t turn back time,

No I can’t turn back to you.

No I can’t turn back time,

No I can’t turn back to you.

No I can’t turn back time,

Turn back to you!

Can’t dry the tears I cried,

Can’t forget the times you lied.

Can’t take away the memory,

Of the day the music died.

I can’t turn back the hours,

No I can’t turn back the night.

There ain’t no magic remedy,

To make it all seem right

You said love was forever,

Never meant it from the start.

The snow it keeps on falling,

Tryin’ to melt away my heart.

You lied about our friendship,

You lied about our love.

Darkness spreading through my heart,

Like storm clouds up above.

Loving you was heaven,

Loving you was hell.

Did everything to treat you right,

Did everything to treat you well.

Seven years I swore I loved you,

For seven years I lived a lie.

I sold my heart and soul to you,

Seven years I tried and tried.

I tried to turn and leave you,

I tried but there I stayed.

Afraid and cold and all alone,

I tried but there I stayed.

I can’t turn and run now,

Run back to you.

I can’t turn back the time my love,

Can’t turn back to you.

I’m tired and I’m cold,

I’m afraid and alone.

All the time I spent with you,

I knew I was alone.

Dreaming of life or living the dream,

The world that I know just ain’t what it seem.

No I can’t turn back time,

Turn back to you.

No I can’t turn back time,

Can’t turn back to you.

No I can’t turn back time,

No I can’t turn back time,

No I can’t turn back time,

(Turn back time)

No I can’t turn back time!

(Solo)

Cos life all alone just ain’t worth a damn,

Just ain’t worth a damn!

(Ain’t worth a damn)

Just ain’t worth a damn,

(Ain’t worth a damn)

Life all alone,

(Ain’t worth a damn)

Just ain’t worth a damn,

Just ain’t worth a damn!(Shouted)

Just ain’t worth a damn,

(All alone)

Just ain’t worth a damn,

(So cold)

I did all I can,

(Ain’t worth a damn)

But nothing seemed right,

(Ain’t worth a damn)

Left out in the dark,

(Oh so cold)

Afraid and alone,

(All alone)

N’ it ain’t worth a damn,

(Ain’t worth a damn)

No it ain’t worth a damn,

(I did all I can)

No it ain’t worth a damn,

(Nothing seemed right)

No it ain’t worth a damn,

(Left in the dark)

Oh so cold,

(Afraid and alone)

I’m all alone,

(It ain’t worth a damn)

Livin’ alone,

(It ain’t worth a damn)

No it ain’t worth a damn.

No it ain’t worth a damn.

No it ain’t worth a…

Damn!!!

(Crescendo then silence)

Well the snow that fell outside of the door,

Melted away my heart.

For seven years you lied to me,

Lied right from the start.

Remember the time that I said to you,

There was nothing I wouldn’t do.

I’d try until my final breath,

To make all you dreams come true.

Your life was a puzzle,

I connected up all the dots.

I sold my heart, I sold my soul,

Sold you everything that I’d got…

Everything that I’d got.

Was I dreaming of life, or living the dream,

That world that I knew, it just ain’t what it seam.

No I can’t turn back time,

Turn back to you.

No I can’t turn back time,

Can’t turn back to you.

Can’t turn back the clock,

Can’t run back to you.

Afraid and alone,

So cold and alone,

Can anybody rescue me?

We were living a lie; we were living a dream,

That world that we made fell apart at the seams.

You were cruel, (So cruel)

Oh so cruel, (So cruel)

No I can’t turn back to you,

Turn back to you…

(Fade out)
