One Hour Back

Your coat was in your hand
Your keys were by the door
You waited for a word
I couldn't say before

The door closed behind you
I watched the minutes pass
If I could turn those hands
I'd ask for one hour back

If I could turn
Those hands tonight
I'd stop them there
Before goodbye

Give me one hour back
Before the night is gone
One hour to say
What I should have said all along

Give me one hour back
That's all I'd ever ask
I wouldn't change our whole life
Just that one hour back

I wouldn't make you stay
I wouldn't change your mind
I'd only tell the truth
I left that night behind

Just sixty minutes
Nothing more
To say "I loved you"
Before that door

Give me one hour back
Before the night is gone
One hour to say
What I should have said all along

Give me one hour back
Then let the morning come
I'd give you back your freedom
When that hour was done
