Who Says You Can'T Go Back In Time

Who says I can’t go back in time
            No, not the records on my shelf
Just flip a switch and there I am
                A version of my younger self

I turn the beat around all night
                  In memories of Disco shoes
A fever boils inside my brain
          Love for the night is mine to lose

Who says I can’t go back in time
   No, not the clock that haunts my wall
The tick and tock now tock and tick
              As I drift back and have a ball

As pages turn in rhythmic flow
               The photos in my book agree
It’s just as though I’m really there
                  Another sip of wine for me!
