Meaning

A ballad about choices and dire consequences

Lyrics

Give me time to reason
Give me time to think it through
Passing through the season
Where I cheated you

I will always have a cross to wear,
But the bolt reminds me I was there

So give me strength,
To face this test tonight

If only I could turn back time
If only I had said what I still hide
If only I could turn back time
I would stay for the night.
For the night...

Claim your right to science
Claim your right to see the truth
Though my pangs of conscience,
Will drill a hole in you

I seen it coming like a thief in the night,
I seen it coming from the flash of your light

So give me strength,
To face this test tonight

If only I could turn back time
If only I had said what I still hide
If only I could turn back time..
I would stay

The bolt reminds me I was there
The bolt reminds me I was there

If only I could turn back time
If only I had said what I still hide
If only I could turn back time
I would stay for the night
Play with the song, fill the gaps
