Christina Perri - back in time Lyrics






If I had a time machine
That went right to you and me for a minute
I wouldn't get in it
Okay, maybe I would climb inside
Press some buttons and turn the dial to that summer
Where my heart felt younger

I'm not saying things were better then
But I wish you could see smile at me again

'Cause I was in love, I could not explain it
We spoke in tongues, written in our own language
I was yours and you were mine
I made you mad, you drove me crazy
So simple then, but so complicated
I think of you and I don't know why
'Cause I can't go back in time

If I had the chance again
To stop the ending when it came
I wouldn't do it
Yeah, we were done and we knew it, hmm

See, I remember how it felt
All the heaven, all the hell that we went through
Doesn't mean I was meant for you

'Cause I was in love, I could not explain it
We spoke in tongues, written in our own language
I was yours and you were mine
I made you mad, you drove me crazy
So simple then, but so complicated
I think of you and I don't know why
'Cause I can't go back in time

You're happy now, I've settled down
Guess life is full of things we could live without
But that doesn't change the truth
Part of me was made by you

'Cause I was in love, I could not explain it
We spoke in tongues, written in our own language
I was yours and you were mine
I made you mad, you drove me crazy
So simple then, but so complicated
I think of you and I don't know why
'Cause I can't go back in time

If I had a time machine
That went right to you and me for a minute
I wouldn't get in it

    I love this one particularly. Very thoughtful. I’ll be relistening all weekend.

    Oh Christina, there is an emotional depth to your compositions, and vocal expressions that are a revelation to this 68 year old man. Absolutely stunning, otherworldly, heartfelt, with a profound humanity that blows me away. I watched your interview with your good friend, and I had no idea what you have gone through Christina, bless you. As a father of two adult daughters it was beautiful to hear you explain what went into Ever Gone. We grow through pain, and mature as empathetic beings from what we experience, and learn along our unique paths. You are on your way Christiana, and I am saddened and sorry for your loss, but you have grown immensely, and you have grown immeasurably in grace.

    Darling, this one needs to be single. My fav so far ❤️❤️🥺🥺🥺

  5. F.... ....

    This takes me back to "Distance" feat. Jason Mraz from her 1st album and "Be My Forever" feat Ed Sheeran from her 2nd album, funny how she always puts only one feat on each album, I like to think this works like a part 3 😍 great song and album anyway

  6. p.... ....

    Good catch, and all with male singers. I wished Rachel Platten and Christina would have included a proper vocal featuring in this album

    ❤Only for fans over 18 year⤵️ Alles sehr schön. Aber zuerst zusammen die Nummern 10 und 1. Eine emprutt.ONLINE Brünette und eine andere Blondine. Es wäre unfair, wennw ich 4 wählen würde

  35. b.... s....

    i prefer her older stuff but this isn’t bad. each song on the album sounds the same to me.
