I wish I had a time machine

For the day I was alone

Travel back a day in advance

And make sure I didn't scream down the phone

I wasn't in a good place

But that's something you already know

We both know that it won't cut it but

A hopeless man can hope

I could explain it all away

But that just wouldn't make a change

Everything I did happened regardless

I don't know what I hope you'll say

Please don't feel like you have to stay

I understand if I can't be pardoned

Why can't I

Travel back to the very start

So I never ever have to go and brеak your heart

I'd know what to do, I would get it right

But I would just be living a liе

Or if I travelled back and walked on past

To avoid starting something that couldn't last

But if I did that, what would it change

I'd meet someone else and make the same mistakes

Oh no

Oh no, no

Oh, oh

I wish I had a time machine

But what I really want is to get another try to be

Yours, but I don't deserve that, do I
