If I could turn the hands of time.....

If I could turn the hands of time.....

I wish I knew then, then I would know now

I don't know where to begin

To me, it felt like a fairy tale

Gazing in the eyes of my Prince Charming

Well-dressed, well-groomed, headstrong, and intelligent

I felt like Cinderella except I lost my mind not my glass slipper

When I took my first step down the aisle, I knew I would make a mistake

The worst mistake of my life

Could it be him? Or me?

My once Prince Charming turned into a my worst enemy

Been on my hands and knees for him

I grew angry and tired of him

Slaving away all my sweats and tears for him

I don't know why him

If I could turn the hands back in time

I wish I knew then

Then I would've known now
