 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

 now if time is really a river

 and upstream�s where he needed to be

 he set his sights on the past

 and finished his glass

 and went back in history

 To the casual eye it's a barstool

 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 the 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 to the casual eye it's a barstool

 but it's really much more than it seems

 just a few drinks and then

 she'll be with him again

 as he sits on the time machine

 Just a few drinks and then

 she'll be with him again

 as he sits on the time machine
