Q: Accidentally added text to a photo in Photo Preview and can't revert to original

So as I was going through my photos, I opened one of them in preview and was about to crop it but accidentally added text instead. Then I accidentally exited out of the photo and now my original photo has been replaced with the one with a red "text" smack dab in the middle of it. I tried to revert to the original version, but it says that Time Machine backup can't be found.

 

I am at a loss and pretty frustrated because at this point, it's looking like I'm going to just have to delete and lose the original photo.

 

Is there any way I can retrieve the original file?
