Rewind - Devlin

[00:01.17]How I wanted you here by my side
[00:08.27]I know what I said but I lied
[00:13.89]It looked like I laughed but I cried
[00:18.58]But I wish I could push rewind
[00:22.51]When the sky breaks it rains
[00:24.17]So just let the H2O splash upon the graves
[00:26.45]Of all the souls I used to know but now have passed away
[00:29.15]Men say that time can heal a situation
[00:31.50]But this pain is not a passing phase
[00:33.27]Now I'm curious how many years a heart can ache
[00:35.76]Feel like a Minotaur meandering this darkened place
[00:38.64]Trying to find a way to maybe find the light of day
[00:41.15]If I could rewind then I'd re-live my life again
[00:44.70]And sit and hold my nan's hands while she felt the pain
[00:46.75]And say hello to old mates behind the pearly gates
[00:49.22]Given the chance to glance back at my childish face
[00:51.98]I'd try and smile the way I smiled just like a child again
[00:54.70]Before I had to say goodbye to anybody
[00:56.94]And the loved ones I've lost all had life within their bodies
[00:59.74]My side was less lonely then
[01:01.35]You wanna cry well come and hold me then
[01:03.40]I think I need the blessing of some holy man
[01:05.18]'everything is different now
[01:09.52]I'd really like to tell you how
[01:16.52]How I wanted you here by my side
[01:23.78]I know what I said but I lied
[01:29.50]It looked like I laughed but I cried
[01:34.20]But I wish I could push rewind
[01:48.71]If I had minutes on my hand just like a time piece
[01:51.31]I'd turn the clocks back and maybe try to find peace
[01:53.87]As well as my ID, so rewind me
[01:56.60]Just like a video cassette 'cause I'm upset that I ain't seen
[01:58.95]Some faces in a while just apparitions in my dream
[02:01.68]That ends abruptly when they try to hug me through the screen
[02:04.45]Of smoke that's engulfing me
[02:06.20]Like the coastline with its high tide
[02:07.70]And you can see the sands and the oceans meet
[02:10.32]No one told me when this ride began to hold my seat
[02:12.86]Time flies like Emmet Brown was in the driver's seat
[02:15.50]You talk of irony
[02:16.81]Well now I'm lonely
[02:18.90]But I'm searching for my privacy
[02:18.97]This life won't comply with me
[02:21.30]I think I need some dead relatives either side of me
[02:23.50]To keep me company and guide me through the library
[02:26.90]Of neverending stories full of lies and deceit
[02:28.61]Hi Ho Silver, Lone Ranger riding to the beat
[02:31.52]'Cause everything is different now
[02:35.77]I'd really like to tell you how
[02:42.78]How I wanted you here by my side
[02:50.60]I know what I said but I lied
[02:55.33]It looked like I laughed and I cried
[03:00.30]But I wish I could push rewind
[03:04.26]If I could rewind time to its slowest
[03:06.77]I'd look at life at its heights and its lowest
[03:09.52]So I could maybe try to recollect
[03:11.11]What made me who I am besides a poet
[03:13.58]Besides a poet
[03:17.86]How I wanted you here by my side
[03:25.18]I know what I said but I lied
[03:30.48]It looked like I laughed but I cried
[03:35.34]But I wish I could push rewind
[03:45.00]
