[Lyric] If I Could Only Have That Day Back (Howard Hewett)

Summertime, such a sweet, sweet smell
This photograph of you shows very well
How happy we were then, so wild and free

My beating heart begins to race
A single tear leaves an everlasting trace
Now that your gone, girl, it's easier to see

Oh, sing sweetly now
(That's how much I missed you)
More than you'll ever know now baby
(That's how much I loved you)
It's only you I want to hold

If I could only have that day back
Just for a while
Long enough to see you smile
If I could only have that day back
To love again
The way I loved you way back when
(If I could only have that day back)
Oh, baby, I wanna hold you, baby
(If I could only have that day back)
Yeah, yeah
No holding on to the hands of time
This simple twist of fate
Ain't no ordinary crime
You're gone for good now
It all comes down to me

Oh, sing sweetly now
(That's how much I missed you)
More than you'll ever know now baby
(That's how much I loved you)
It's only you I want to hold

If I could only have that day back
Just for a while
Long enough to see you smile
If I could only have that day back
Just to love you again
The way I loved you way back when
Oh, oh girl, ooh-ooh...

I really loved you
(That's how much I want you)
More than you'll ever know now, baby
(That's how much I need you)
Oh, I really need you, girl
(That's how much I lived for)
I wanna live for you, darling
(Love and live and die for)
I wanna hold you now, baby, oh...
If I could only have that day back
Oh, to love you
Oh, to hold you, hey ,baby
If I could only have that day back
I wanna love you, my baby, hey...

If I could only have that day back
Ooh-ooh-ooh...
Could I have that day back, baby, yeah
Day back, baby, yeah
If I could only have that day back
I wanna hold you, I wanna love you
I wanna love you

If I could only have that day back
Ooh-ooh-ooh...
Oh, oh, oh...
If I could only have that day back
Say, just let me love you
Say, just let me love you

If I could only have that day back
I just want to hold you in my arms
If I could only have that day back
