Lyrics

I remember trying to draw your face
How many times every line did I erase
To get it right
I remember walking up your street
I'd try and time it just right so that we might meet
Then I’d call out your name
If I could go back
I’d show you all the ways that you made me feel
If I could go back
I’d take you in my arms try and set us free
If I could go back
I wouldn’t be here now trying to say ‘I’m sorry’
Under the bleachers in Aubrey park
It was starting to snow I was getting cold it was getting dark
You gave me your coat
I could see the words forming in your eyes
You started to say it I couldn’t take it
I tried to hide
Too scared of your flame
If I could go back
I’d show you all the ways that you made me feel
If I could go back
I’d take you in my arms try and set us free
If I could go back
I wouldn’t be here now trying to say ‘I’m sorry’
I was seventeen
By the time I knew it it was too late
You had your goals you decided to go I was gonna stay
I said ‘it’s better this way’
I thought I’d try not to say goodbye
But I took your Replacements tape to the station just in time
To call out your name
If I could go back
I’d show you all the ways that you made me feel
If I could go back
I’d take you in my arms try and set us free
If I could go back
I’d read all the letters that you wrote to me
If I could go back
And be seventeen
