Every moment I regret it and it kills me
(Damn) I had to cause you pain
And now I'll never get to see your precious face
It's too late but in my heart you hold that special place
I still remember the day
In a room filled with people but I felt so alone
Eyes all cried out, no longer whole
This is my only regret wish I could build a time machine
My life's now spinning in a whirl wind
Wish I could go back back in time where what was our begin
How I regret letting you go
Feels like I'm missing the final pieces to my puzzle
Now I'm sinking, I'm going down
i wish that i could build a time machine
i'm going down
i wish that i could build a time machine
my heart is pounding it feels like i ran a marathon
every second that goes by i'm slowly dying
(damn) but still you don't believe
look in your eyes it's like your (empty cant gwt through to you)
my heart is broken i'm so hopeless, i'm so hopeless girl
no tricks left under my sleeves
girl i know that i ain't perfect but i feel inside
so much hurt i can't erase it but i have to try
to get you back this is the last thing that i do
i'm gonna make you see that i've changed and you can count one me
(oh)
my life's now spinning in a whirl wind
wish i could go back back in time where what was our begin
how i regret letting you go
feels like i'm missing the final pieces to my puzzle
now i'm sinking, i'm going down
i wish that i could build a time machine
i'm going down
i wish that i could build a time machine
