If I Could Change It - Maxi Priest

It’s crazy how we sit and think

everything’s gonna last forever

Then it changes

All you thought you ever knew

was nothing more than the child in you

How it raised me

I thought I knew it all

Never learned from my pitfalls

I was Mr Know-It-All

Now I’m locked up in this 4 by 4

If I could change it

If I could turn back the hands of time

I’ll rearrange it

Be a better man than I am

If I could change it

If I could turn back the hands of time

I’ll rearrange it

Be a better man than I am

Holding back the tears of yesterday

I can see it all so clear

The things I let just slip away

Now I see all my mistakes

Try your best to understand

As a man, you gotta make a plan

The road is there for you to see

You gotta rule your destiny

I thought I knew it all

Never learned from my pitfalls

I was Mr Know-It-All

Now I’m locked up in this 4 by 4

If I could change it

If I could turn back the hands of time

I’ll rearrange it

Be a better man than I am

If I could change it

If I could turn back the hands of time

I’ll rearrange it

Be a better man than I am

If I could change it

Only If I can change it

If I could change it

If I could change it
