If I Rewrote Yesterdays

If I had it all over again
Would I write the same words with my pen
With the past at my feet
Would the story repeat
Would my lines drift out of phase
If I rewrote yesterdays
If I played it all over again
Would I say the same lines I did then
Would the music be strange
Would my character change
Would my words be out of phase
If I rewrote yesterdays
Easier said than done
I’m not the only one
Who’s tried before to make memories get up and go
Keeping an open mind
Do or do not, you find
Someone is saying softly babe I told you so
If I loved you all over again
I would be the man I wasn’t then
For your wants, I would meet
Let your memories be sweet
But it’s going out of phase
I can’t rewrite yesterdays
