If I Could Turn Back the Hands of Time

If I Could Turn Back the Hands of Time

If I could turn back the hands of time I would go one more time to the Plainville Park and see you on the swings so young and beautiful, laughing and talking with your friends.
I would write our names once again on the water tanks at the top of the Wrentham Ski Slope.
I would look into your eyes so full of love the day we exchanged vows in my parent’s backyard in Wrentham. We were so young and so in love with each other.
If I could only turn back the hands of time

If I could turn back the hands of time I would carry you in my arms once again over the threshold of our first home.
I would watch you while you held our daughter Jenny as a tiny little baby for the first time. You were so happy then and you loved Jenny so much.
I would walk hand in hand with you on the beach in California listening to the surf and we would watch the sun slip into the Pacific one more time sitting side by side in the sand.

If I could turn back the hands of time I wouldn’t listen to the local oncologist when he told us you were cured of cancer. I am so sorry Cindy.
I would hold you in my arms and rest my head against yours and stay there until I fell asleep.
I would tell you another ten thousand times how much I love you.
If I could only turn back the hands of time


If I could turn back the hands of time I would dance with you another dance. I would see that look I will never forget when you looked up at me and even though you had been through so much I knew without any doubt how much you loved me.
I would want to kiss you and say goodbye one more time.
I would pray once more to God and ask Him not to take you so I wouldn’t have to face the rest of my life alone.
If I could only turn back the hands of time

I love and miss you so much Cindy. If I could only turn back the hands of time
