Ooh, let it be Don't be a prisoner of your memories They steal from your future and fill you with lies Don't be afraid, you've got tomorrow Open the doors and see what waits inside CHORUS: 'Cause you can't turn back the hands of time No you can't turn back the hands of time Life is full of dreams Broken hearts and mysteries. But what's done is done, and you must move on You like to paint a scene Like a water colored fantasy Distorted visions where you can hide But in our lives, we must live for tomorrow Cling to the past and you'll be left behind CHORUS: 'Cause you can't turn back the hands of time No you can't turn back those pages of your mind No you can't turn back There's nothing left behind No you can't turn back You can't turn back the hands of time But in our lives, we must live for tomorrow Cling to the past and you'll be left behind CHORUS
