Cover art for If I Could Start Today Again lyrics by Paul Kelly

It's a song of despair, but somehow it's also constructive, it's not just wallowing around in depressing regret.

This song is particularly meaningful to me because once when I was a teenager, with some depression and also Christian beliefs, I realised the same thing, that no one in the bible had ever been able to turn back time to make up for the things they wish they didn't do.
