Walking Backwards

Give me strength, give me something right
I'm not leaving 'til I make this right
I'm not leaving 'til I make this night
Get me to the morning light

Like finding darkness after daylight shone
Walking backwards, drinking alone

Once I knew a girl so fine
Thought I'd make that girl be mine
Thought I'd make it last this time
Turns out nothing's ever mine

Like finding darkness after daylight shone
Walking backwards, living alone

Here I am where I was before
Looking for something, searching for more
Looking for something that was there before
Find the key to unlock the door

Like finding darkness after daylight shone
Walking backwards, sleeping alone

Pick the lock with the skeleton key
Open the door that was close to me
Open the door, going to break free
Find somebody just like me

Like finding darkness after daylight shone
Walking backwards, being alone

Under the willow by the river bend
Lonely place to lay my head
Lonely place to meet my end
'Til something makes me start again

Like finding darkness after daylight shone
Walking backwards, dancing alone
