Lyrics
(Verse 1)
A new dad, with dreams in his eyes,
Walking on the street, under cloudy skies.
But time slipped away, caught in life's disguise,
Lost in distractions, blind to what's near,
A phone in his hand, a child's laughter to hear.
(Verse 2)
A collision of fate, a heart-wrenching blow,
As the car struck his child, time moved so slow.
Haunted by sorrow, he withdrew from the light,
Twenty years of solitude, longing to make it right.
(Pre-Chorus)
One careless moment, a life turned to gray,
The echoes of regret, haunting every day,
But he couldn't bear the pain, couldn't let it be,
So he built a time machine, to rewrite history.
(Chorus)
If I could turn back time, rewrite every line,
Undo every mistake, erase the pain inside.
I'd hold you close, never let you go,
But I'm stuck in this loop, haunted by what I know.
(Verse 3)
He ventured back, with hope in his eyes,
To change the past, where his innocence dies.
But arriving too late, he witnessed his own despair,
A father's anguish, a heart beyond repair.
(Pre-Chorus)
One careless moment, a life turned to gray,
The echoes of regret, haunting every day,
But he couldn't bear the pain, couldn't let it be,
So he built a time machine, to rewrite history.
(Pre-Chorus)
One careless moment, a life turned to gray,
The echoes of regret, haunting every day,
But he couldn't bear the pain, couldn't let it be,
So he built a time machine, to rewrite history.
(Verse 4)
Back in time again, with resolve in his stride,
He ran to himself, desperate to confide.
But time's cruel grip, it refused to relent,
The accident still came, destiny's intent.
(Bridge)
Through countless attempts, he fought against the tide,
But fate's iron grasp, it could not be denied.
In one final act, he faced his deepest fear,
Pushed himself to the car, as the end drew near.
(Chorus)
If I could turn back time, rewrite every line,
Undo every mistake, erase the pain inside.
I'd hold you close, never let you go,
But I'm stuck in this loop, haunted by what I know
The echoes of regret.
As he faded away,
A whisper in the ether, his essence was sown.
Reborn as his grandson, two decades in wait,
And as he opened his eyes,
In the arms of his son, his journey pursued.
He stopped crying,
Lost in the present, shedding past souvenirs
No more echoes of regret
(Outro)
