You can't turn back time it's a one way street
You can't just go back home - your childhood friends to greet
And just like you can't burn that candle one more time
You know the truth unspoken - you can't turn back time

You can't erase your history - it made you what you are
And no one knows your troubles or how you got this far
You don't know where your old friends gone - you tried him several times
God! It's crazy getting older - but you can't turn back time

Your mind is full of memories of things long gone past
And although your days are numbered now you're sure your gonna last
But life's becoming harder, now everything's a chore
You don't know what those pills do - ah! - but for sure you're taking yours

So you think of all the things you've done and where you've been
Of the faces and the places and all the in betweens
And although your bones are aching now - you'd still try extra time
But a distant truth's unfolding - and you can't turn back time

So let's raise a glass to all who pass this way in time
Before your back it aches, your legs they quake and the stairs you fail to climb
Still the progress they are making in these ever-changing times
There's one thing that's for certain - they can't turn back time

There's one thing that's for certain, you can't turn back time - there's one thing that's for certain, you can't turn back time
