If I Had It to Do Again

[Verse 1]
If you could turn back yesterday's pages
And start all over, where would you begin?
Would you live your life the same, my friend
If you had it to do again?

[Verse 2]
Of all the things I wish could be different
There's one goodbye that never should have been
And there's one love that I wouldn't throw to the wind
If I had it to do again

[Chorus]
When you're lookin' from a distance
And you're lonely like me
It's amazin' how much clearer
Things can be

[Verse 3]
Oh, I would bring her flowers ev'ry mornin'
And say "I love you" ev'ry now and then
Oh, and I wouldn't be the fool I've been
If I had it to do over again

[Chorus]
When you're lookin' from a distance
And you're lonely like me
It's amazin' how much clearer
Things can be

[Verse 4]
Don't know why I worry and wonder
Yesterday is gone, so why pretend?
But would she forgive me I can't help wonderin'
If she had it to do again
If she had it to do over again
If she had it to do over again?
