"You Can Never Turn the Clock Back "
...........................................................
If it's wrong to long for lost love
Then I'm as wrong as I can be
You say it's foolish, and that may be true
But it sure seems right to me
She offered me true love
That I'd never known
I saw the door to heaven
And just walked through.
And you say you'd be different
If this happened to you
But with heaven at your fingertips
I wonder what would you do
If to have love remain in your heart
For someone you once cherished
Is deemed contrary to all known laws
Then I'll run counter clockwise all my life
For I know she was the best thing
That's ever happened to me
I can live with all the consequences
Of keeping a little piece of her
Rivetted way down inside my soul
Thats the essence of us, that will never die
It can never be erased, or dissected in two
For when you love like we did
You can never say goodbye
Because goodbye is a dirty word
That just should never be said

Of keeping a little piece of her
Rivetted way down inside my soul
Sometimes, that's all we can do, Peter.

I like this...
(For when you love like we did
You can never say goodbye
Because goodbye is a dirty word
That just should never be said)
This one is a keeper for me.
