Turn Back Now Lyrics

Well, he went up to the woods to find his heart

The weight of the world had torn him apart

Found the bottom of the barrel and he scraped it clean

Gonna sit right there till the grey turns green

Till the grey turns green

One foot in and one foot out

Ain't no way to gather your thoughts

It just clouds you mind and leaves you numb

You can have it all, but you can't have some

No, you can't have some

Like some tawny fallen angel

With a busted a harp and a tale to tell

He could never turn back now

Bound and collared by his nature

Fallen leaves have covered his trail

He could never turn back now

Even if he wanted to

Well, she never thought it'd take this long to start

But the keeping it moving is the hardest part

And the pictures, they don't tell it all

You focus on the landing and forget the fall

Forget the fall

Once or twice she thought she'd make it

But the feeling comes and it goes so fast

She could never turn back now

All the memories parading

Round and round in a rose tint glass

She could never turn back now

Even if she wanted to

Like some tawny fallen angel

With a busted a harp and a tale to tell

He could never turn back now

Bound and collared by his nature

Fallen leaves have covered his trail

He could never turn back now

Even if he wanted to
