Lyrics Turn Back Time - Beady Belle

As I touched the rose all the petals fell off
And the stem stood there naked wittingly exposed
The perfect composition wasn't there anymore
The sublime masterpiece scattered out on the floor

The pitiable sight of the fragmented bloom
As a smell of decay suddenly filled the room
Irreversible and oh so irremediable deed
Despite self-reproach I'm a broken reed

Why couldn't I have just enjoyed the beauty
Why couldn't I have just left it alone
How could I destroy something so wonderfully made

Now the season of blossom is gone
How I wish I could turn back time
How I wish you'd still be mine

However I trumpet the blame that I take
The sorry word doesn't work on this mistake
So I'll sweep up all the petals lying on the floor
And I'll empty the dustpan as I lock the door

Why couldn't I have just enjoyed the beauty
Why couldn't I have just left it alone
How could I destroy something so wonderfully made

Now the season of blossom is gone
How I wish I could turn back time
How I wish you'd still be mine
