I cannot change it I cannot change the past Reliving memories keeps me up at night It's hard enough as it is Rewriting them only adds to the pain So many things I said and did And so many I didn't say or do But why Why after all this time Can I not stick it in my head That I cannot change the past And why Why can't I believe myself When I say that I can only change the future

I cannot change it I cannot change the past Reliving memories keeps me up at night It's hard enough as it is Rewriting them only adds to the pain So many things I said and did And so many I didn't say or do But why Why after all this time Can I not stick it in my head That I cannot change the past And why Why can't I believe myself When I say that I can only change the future
