If I Could Do It Over Lyrics



Well, I came in ‘bout the break of dawn

You still had the porch light on

And in my drunken state of mind

Well, I said some things that weren’t so kind

When it comes to words, you know I’m not that good

But, I’d do things different now, baby, if I could.



(Chorus)

Well, I’d turned around, I’d held my tongue

I’d made you see you’re the only one

And, I’d loved you like I’ve never done before

Well, I’d said I’m wrong, I’d said you’re right

I’d took your hand and I’d held it tight

And I wouldn’t let go ‘til the room felt a little less

colder

If I could do it over.



Now, there’s a honky tonk at the edge of town

And every night that’s where I’m found

I soak my mind in the alcohol

But, it don’t seem to help at all

I cut loose the only one who ever cared for me

If I could go back now, I’d do things differently.



(Repeat Chorus)



Well, I’d be with you at home

And, I’d take back every word I’d said, that ever came

out wrong

If I could do it over, I’d loved a little more

And, I’d done my best to be the man that you’re looking

for.



(Repeat Chorus)
