Tell me how long does it take
To change the face of yesterday?
Ghost in the mirror looks back at me so hauntingly
I can't believe you're gone

And I know it's gonna take a little more than a drink
And a gun to come and blow me away

Tell me how long will it take
To change the face of yesterday?
And I know I'm to blame
As I watch the years go down the drain
What I wouldn't give tonight to erase those days
Erase those days

Aching and breaking, I'm at the seams
Looking back at all the broken dreams
I know it's gonna take a little more than a pill
Or a one night thrill to come and numb the pain

Tell me how long will it take
To change the face of yesterday?
And I know I'm to blame
As I watch the years go down the drain
What I wouldn't give tonight to erase those days

Every time I failed to push you away
Erase those days
Every time I left you high and dry
In a cold night's rain

I can change if you give me a chance
I promise you, we won't be the same
If you give me the years I blew away

And I know I'm to blame
As I watch the years go down the drain
What I wouldn't give tonight
What I wouldn't give tonight, to erase those days
To erase those days

To erase those days
To erase those, oh, oh
To erase those days
