Go Back - Darlingside

We were always on our way

Rolling up our sleeves

Ever moving forward

In the tracks where we lived our simple lives

Kept our blinders on

Eyes to the horizon

I know I’m no doctor but I know

You can’t live in the past

But the only way to go is to go back

And return to who we were

Before we disappeared

Into the thick of big ideas

Now we can see the sweeping view

But we’re waiting out the storm

Stuck under the awning

I know I’m no doctor but I know

You can’t live in the past

But the only way to go is to go back

Into everglades

Greener yesterdays

Skip the stones away

Go back to the start

Photos in the darkroom before they fade

So we hold to who we are

Even into the arc

Beyond our furthest edges

To a world full of strange and towering skies

And a chance to choose in time

To set out on our own way

I know I’m no doctor but I know

You can’t live in the past

But the only way to go is to go back
