If I had a rearview mirror
Would I get to see you again?
Would I cause a scene with your friends?
Would they get to like me in the end?
I found your old camera in a box
Can we shoot the movie again?
I would like to rewrite the script
I'll make it different

They said it's impossible to go back
Thought I was special, that I had the power
To hold time and to drag it back slowly
But now I'm pacing my room, just waiting for you
And realize I can never go back

If I had a rearview mirror
Would I keep it all just the same?
Watch us go up in flames?
Or savor it like old champagne?
All the tears (all the tears), all the games (all the games)
All the joy (all the joy), all the shame

'Cause they said it's impossible to go back (can't go back)
Thought I was special, that I had the power (had the power)
To hold time and to drag it back slowly (ah-ah)
But now I'm pacing my room, just waiting for you
Realize I can never go back
I can never go back

Now I'm pacing my room, just waiting for you
And realize I can never go back
