lyrics

The lights of town are shaking
Like a wet dog on a chain
All the money we were making
We may not see it again

But we can’t go back
No we can’t go back
We can’t just go
Back to the way it was

Sour bread mama’s baking
Has worked its way into my brain
We may tend to feel forsaken
When we suspect that love’s been feigned

But we can’t go back
No we can’t go back
We can’t just go
Back to the way it was

White spring flowers by waterfalls
Big creek running between concrete walls
We may have bent to what we’ve lost
We must keep growing at all costs
Long old tunnel, damp and dark
Sunlight shining through the other end of the park
We can’t go back
No we can’t go back
We can’t just go
Back to the way it was

I can feel your heart is aching
In your eyes I see the pain
Defining strength is complicating
Still there's one thing that is plain

We can’t go back
No we can’t go back
We can’t just go
Back to the way it was
