Lyrics John Martyn

John Martyn

Can't Turn Back The Years

Never gonna give it up never gonnna it up never never

I could have given you everything you need

I cannot turn back the years

A perfect love was what you wanted from me

But I cannot turn back the years

It's important to be strong, carry on

You've got to go forward no matter what they think

When you find your heart in pieces one thing you can do

And it's love deep down

Got a love deep down

It's too bad I love you

It's too bad for me

It's too bad I love you

It's too bad for me

Sometimes it hits me in the morning

Sometimes it hits me in the middle of the day

Turn back the covers and I throw back the light

But I cannot turn back the years

It's important to be strong, carry one

You've got to be full no matter what they think

When you find yourself in pieces only one thing to do

Let loose deep down, love deep down

It's too bad I loved you

It's too bad for me

It's too bad I loved you

Too bad for me

I could have given you everything you needed

But I cannot turn back the years

A perfect love was what you wanted from me

But I cannot turn back the years

Never gonna give it up never gonnna it up never never

Oh no never gonna give it up
