Turn The Clock Around

(album: Mandy Moore - 2001)

We were talking to each other 'til dawn
You put your arms around me and you asked me what was wrong
I tried to be so serious, you smiled and played along
You had to leave town tomorrow, yeah tomorrow you'd be gone
We must have had the stars above and heaven on our side
'Cause we fell in love before we even made it through the night
But you were leaving town, and started another kind of life
You walked me to the door and we tried to say goodbye

Maybe I've never found the right way
I kept my love hidden underground
Baby I wish that there was some way
That I could turn the clock around

But I couldn't sleep, I called up everybody that I knew
All my friends said that I'd be crazy if I waited 'round you
I wanted to believe then so I called to say we're through
But when I heard your voice, it nearly broke my heart in two

Maybe I've never found the right way
I kept my love hidden underground
Baby I wish that there was some way
That I could turn the clock around

Don't say you're gone, I'll find you
Someday...

Well I jumped into my car but as I headed down the road
I knew that when i got there, there might be nobody home
You had gone away forever, and you left me all alone
Now I was on my own

Maybe I've never found the right way
I kept my love hidden underground
Baby I wish that there was some way
That I could turn the clock around
