Collin Raye - The Time Machine lyrics

He circled and stared Nervous and scared He knew both the thrill and the cost But he didn't think twice This amazing device Was his last chance to see what he'd lost If time is really a river And upstream's where he needed to be He set his sights on the past Finished his gla** And went back in history [Chorus:] To the casual eye it's a bar stool But it's really much more than it seems A few drinks and then She'll be with him again As he sits on the time machine Like all pioneers He swallowed his fears And watched the whole room fade to black He's dying to go But he's no fool, he knows How hard it will be to come back But tonight he's tired of the lonely And tomorrow will not be the cure So he'll just slip away Find yesterday And spend one more night with her Now, as far as these customers can tell He's just one more fool who talks to himself But every man in this place would line up If they knew what that seat really was (but) [Chorus] Just a few drinks and then She'll be with him again As he sits on the time machine
