Rolling Back the Rivers In Time

I always admitted pity

'Cause I was getting lonely

Oh-oh, I was lonely

Oh, baby, without you

I always, I hid it, pity

I needed you to hold me

Oh, boy, you shoulda known me

I didn't know how to

Gone are the days of magic

Those times were cool

I tried to make love, not hate

What was I to do?

Oh, The Police were playing

We danced all night

We were kissing till dark turned to light

Ah-ooh, rolling back the rivers in time

Can't wait, got to see his face somewhere

Ah-ooh, holding back the minutes gone by

Someday, got to see his face, oh, yeah

There's a feeling in my soul

That sets my heart alight

I tell you, there's a feeling in my soul

That tells me you're all mine

There's an arrow in my heart

You sent at seventeen

I tell you there's a shadow in my heart

That tells of what could've been

Ah-ooh, rolling back the rivers in time

Can't wait, got to see his face somewhere

Ah-ooh, holding back the minutes gone by

Someday, got to see his face, oh, yeah

Doesn't really matter, I feel nothing better at all (Ooh-ooh)

Sending him a letter, I know I won't regret it at all (Ooh-ooh)

It doesn't really matter, a miracle can happen for sure (Ooh-ooh)

I'd rather wait forever, babe, then never have it at all

Ah-ooh, rolling back the rivers in time

Can't wait, got to see his face somewhere

Ah-ooh, holding back the minutes gone by

Someday, got to see his face, oh, yeah

Ah-ooh, rolling back the rivers in time

Can't wait, got to see his face somewhere

Ah-ooh, holding back the minutes gone by

Someday, got to see his face, oh, yeah
