All I ever wanted I wish I'd never seen this day And darker clouds had blown away To clear the sky, for the sun to shine I pray that memories fade away And some new morning I'll breathe the light of day Then she will know, the price we paid and we paid All I ever wanted Was to turn back time And wipe the tears from my eyes They've been there a long time I'm locked down, a heart that's screaming No love, I'm only dreaming When you smile I see shadows on the ceiling When once, a kiss was all No more within these walls And so, your distant love still calls All I ever wanted Was to turn back time And wipe the tears from my eyes They've been there a long time With all the hope that slips away A shining star will come our way Take it back, turn it back, take it back All I ever wanted All I ever wanted Was holding hands on drifting sands And walking while the sun was falling And all the words I never heard They only cried that love was calling Way down within your mind You left our life behind A place where passion Leaves a grown man blind So take away my heart We wont survive apart For this is the day For young love and young hearts
