Rewind Lyrics - Singles - Devlin

When the sky breaks it rains 

So just let the H2O splash upon the graves 

Of all the souls I used to know but now have passed away 

Men say that time can heal a situation 

But this pain is not a passing phase 

Now I'm curious how many years a heart can ache 

Feel like a Minotaur meandering this darkened place 

Trying to find a way to maybe find the light of day 

If I could rewind then I'd re-live my life again 

And sit and hold my nan's hands while she felt the pain 

And say hello to old mates behind the pearly gates 

Given the chance to glance back at my childish face 

I'd try and smile the way I smiled just like a child again 

Before I had to say goodbye to anybody 

And the loved ones I've lost all had life within their bodies 

My side was less lonely then 

You wanna cry well come and hold me then 

I think I need the blessing of some holy men 

'Cause everything is different now 

I'd really like to tell you how 

How I wanted you here by my side 

I know what I said but I lied 

It looked like I laughed but I cried 

But I wish I could push rewind 

If I had minutes on my hand just like a time piece 

I'd turn the clocks back and maybe try to find peace 

As well as my ID, so rewind me 

Just like a video cassette cause I'm upset that I ain't seen 

Some faces in a while just apparitions in my dream 

That ends abruptly when they try to hug me through the screen 

Of smoke that's engulfing me 

Like the coastline with its high tide 

And you can see the sands and the oceans meet 

No one told me when this ride began to hold my seat 

Time flies like Emmet Brown was in the driver's seat 

You talk of irony 

Well now I'm lonely 

But I'm searching for my privacy 

This life won't comply with me 

I think I need some dead relatives either side of me 

To keep me company and guide me through the library 

Of neverending stories full of lies and deceit 

Hi Ho Silver, Lone Ranger riding to the beat 

'Cause everything is different now 

I'd really like to tell you how 

How I wanted you here by my side 

I know what I said but I lied 

It looked like I laughed but I cried 

But I wish I could push rewind 

If I could rewind time to its slowest 

I'd look at life at its heights and its lowest 

So I could maybe try to recollect 

What made me who I am besides a poet 

Besides a poet 

How I wanted you here by my side 

I know what I said but I lied 

It looked like I laughed but I cried 

But I wish I could push rewind
