Procol Harum - (You Can't) Turn Back The Page Lyrics






The night surrounds me
I can't turn back the hands of time
When I look around me
My thoughts are of the lonely kind
Such a game of high stakes
We gambled and then we lost
We were fools to believe
That we could beat the odds
But the story always ends the same
(You can't turn back the page)
Trying to relive ev'ry moment as it came
(You can't turn back the page)
But it always ends the same
You can't turn back the page
The night surrounds me
I try and get you off my mind
But still... still it hounds me
If I could see you one more time
In a moment of madness
We gambled and the we lost
Now we live in the shadows
And pay the cost
And the story always ends the same
(You can't turn back the page)
Trying to relive ev'ry moment as it came
(You can't turn back the page)
But it always ends the same
You can't turn back the page
The judgement's been set
The jury retired
The court's now in recess
The plea's been denied
And the story always ends the same
(You can't turn back the page)
Trying to relive ev'ry moment as it came
(You can't turn back the page)
But it always ends the same
You can't turn back the page

    Is that Damon Hill on guitar at 3.01 ?

  6. h.... ....

    What a great song and what a big shame that they could not control their egos a little better, a real supergroup at it's best. Unique with piano, Hammond organ and guitar!

  7. Y.... E....

  8. I.... J....

    he night surrounds me
    I can't turn back the hands of time

    My thoughts are of the lonely kind.

  9. P.... ....

    this song, and the whole album, left an unforgettable mark on my high school times.. although it was was not the old Procol Harum, it left its mark well enough

    P.... ....

    In fact it was pretty much the old Procol Harum, at least the sound-decisive members of the early years Gary, Matthew and Robin are there.

  10. F.... C....

    @ed69netherlands I agree with u. The Pursuit of happiness is a wonderful music.
    Has anyone posted it on you tube???

  11. O.... C....

    Great song!

  12. R.... T....

    Or buy the new 4-disc set "All This and More", another great Salvo reissue. I can't say enough about the sound quality of the remastering. Look for "Procol Harum" Salvo reissue. Their entire back catalogue up to Something Magic!

  13. A.... L....

    Buy the CD! Or the CD "Secrets of the Hive". WELL worth every cent! "Secrets of the Hive" is a best of, with all the classics and some more!

  14. G.... N....

    Such an awesome song yet I cant find it anywhere on Limewire!!!

  15. s.... ....

    Damon Hill in one of these clips...

  16. c.... ....

    For me PROCOLA HARUM is like BRUCKNER of the late 70th. A brand for the music history.
    Best song ever is *a salty dog*. uncomparable!

  17. F.... C....

    This is a fantastisc song that deserves 5 stars. Nicolodian 99 doesn't understand what music means...

  18. F.... C....

    Do you think so? What kind of shitty music do you like then? Stay away from Procol Harum!!

  19. n.... ....

    this suks

  20. p.... ....

    Vintage. Pure class
