If I Could Live My Life Again
© 2009 Will Stanley

If I could live my life again
This time, I think I'd start it at the end
From a journey in a hearse
I'd travel in reverse
And wind up back where it all began.

I'd get another full lifetime
To show you I'll love you for all time
As I approached way back when
I'd see where our love has been
If I could live my life again

If I could live my life once more
I'd do a better job of never keeping score
I'd forget trying to win
And spend more time giving in
Even when I'm against what you're for

That way I'd get a whole new view
Of what it's like to be living inside you
I'd learn to explore
Every aspect of your core
If I could live my life once more.

Science says, time's arrow only points one way
Sometimes I wish to turn it around
Then I might be able to express the things I want to say
The things I missed first time around.

It'd be great to have another full lifetime
To show you my love transcends time
It may not make much sense
To mix the past and the future tense
As if I could live my life again.

If I could make the years reverse
All the way back to my birth
If I could live my life again.
If I could live my life again.
