David Ball - 12-12-84 lyrics

12-12-84 12-12-84, Ten O Clock at night Funny how you can remember Certain Moments in your life I wish I could go back To take back the words I said Though it's been years since that night They still echo in my head Chorus//Time is a teacher And time has taught me well What brings a man to his knees Is often brought on by himself If a second chance were offered And she could love me like before I'd go back to the end and start over again On 12-12-84\\ A cold wind was blowing It whistled through the pines I told her I don't need her And she told me goodbye I remember embers dying In the ashes and the coals And like smoke up the chimney I watched a true love go //Chorus\\ I'd go back to the end and start over again On 12-12-84
