If I could save time in a bottle,
The fFm6irst thing that I'd like to G7do
Cm Cm7 A- Fm7 Cm
Is to save every day 'till eternity passes away,
Just to sFmpend them with G7you.
[Chorus]
If I could make days last forever,
If words could make wishes come true,
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again I would spend them with you.
[Chorus]
If I had a box just for wishes,
And dreams that had never come true,
The box would be empty except for the memory of
How they were answered by you.

On the last go 'round, play and hold Dm.
