If I had a time machine - I'd travel to my past 

I'd be home for dinner those machines are fast 

I'd find myself and tell myself to live beyond all fear 

try to tell the truth and never be ashamed of tears! 

I'd be stronger, I'd be kinder 

More gentle and wise 

See situations - through another's eyes 

I'd pay more attention - learn how to flirt 

Erase all the pain of the loved ones I hurt! 

Chorus: 

If I could could it all again - my friend 

Oh what a life I'd lead! 

I'd see every angle and dangerous curve 

Know when to duck - know when to swerve 

If I could do it all again! 

Be more authentic - less phony and fake 

Ditch the mean guy sooner 

Give my head a shake 

Watch less television -take out the trash 

Wouldn't cause ripples -I'd make a big splash! 

(Chorus) 

Bridge: 

There'll be no time travel for this little soul 

I've got too much baggage to haul 

Besides you can't book online 

You pay extra to dine 

Though I hear my past is lovely in the fall 

Would I do it all? 

(Chorus) 

Tag: 

I think time travel might be fun 

Won't mess with the time continuum 

I don't know if I'd do it all again - don't know 

if I - would do it all again!
