Wasted Years

[Verse] Regret fills my mind Wishing I could rewind To a time before When life was so kind Every mistake and heartache I'd leave them all behind If only I could turn back time Oh What a find [Verse 2] Wasted years Lost in a haze of tears I long for a chance to change it all Erase my fears If I had the power I'd rewind the sands To take back the moments slipped through my hands [Chorus] Oh Wasted years I'm drowning in my tears If only I could travel back And make it all clear But time's a cruel mistress She won't let me go I'll keep dreaming of a past I'll never know [Verse 3] Yet in this endless cycle Of what could have been I find a glimmer of hope In the moments in between For though I can't turn back And rewrite the past I can learn from my mistakes And ensure they're the last [Bridge] So I'll embrace the scars And the lessons they impart For they shape who I've become And guide my weary heart Though I can't erase the pain Or rewind the years I'll cherish every moment And face my fears [Chorus] Oh Wasted years No longer drowned in tears For though I can't go back I'll move forward, clear Time's still a mistress, yes But I'll let her flow Creating a future from the seeds I sow [guitar solo] [Outro] No longer dreaming of a past I'll never know I'll write my own story And let my true self show. [end] I'll move forward, clear Time's still a mistress, yes But I'll let her flow Creating a future from the seeds I sow [guitar solo] [Outro] No longer dreaming of a past I'll never know I'll write my own story And let my true self show. [end]
