Cut Me Some Slack

If it were only a year ago
I could've taken a stand
Oh, oh, only a year ago
I would've known who I am
If I only knew a year ago
I would've swallowed my tongue
Oh, oh, only a year ago
I could've taken back what I'd done

I'd love to put the past in the past
Because there is no turning back
I tried to tell you I didn't know
And you'd agree if you cut me some slack

If it had happened a week ago
I could've done what was right
Oh, oh, only a week ago
I would've said goodbye to the night
If I only knew a week ago
I would've signed the card
Oh, oh, only a week ago
I could've given you my regards

I'd love to put the past in the past
Because there is no turning back
I tried to tell you I didn't know
And you'd agree if you cut me some slack

If it were only minutes ago
I could've stopped the song
Oh, oh, only minutes ago
I would've ended strong
If I only knew minutes ago
I would've added another part
Oh, oh, only minutes ago
I could've finally won your heart

I'd love to put the past in the past
Because there is no turning back
I tried to tell you I didn't know
And you'd agree if you cut me some slack
I'd love to put the past in the past
Because there is no turning back
I tried to tell you I didn't know
And you'd agree if you cut me some slack

Cut me some slack
