Looking Back

Over the mountains, down by the creek side
Each our of our boots has tread
Imagined valleys soaking in sunshine
Swam throughout our head
You need to whisper the right words
You scream the wrong ones instead
You scream the wrong ones instead

Scribble-laced pages, distorted daydreams
Blue-prints slowly forged
Led for a ride on the lazy river
Digest the feast we had gorged
Go to sleep little buddy
There's more dreams to be explored
There's more dreams to be explored

Looking back across the track
Dump it down in the river now
Looking back, the sidewalk's cracked
I keep on stumbling, but I can't seem to fall
Down goes the mighty oak
Does anyone hear a sound
Do you think you'll be around
Looking back

Do you remember the names of the people
From the days of long ago
Can't the clear the cobwebs left by mumbling ghosts
Where did everybody go
We're just taking a breather
In a hideaway from the snow
A hideaway from the snow

Who owned the body that we saw floating
Face down in the stream
Did anybody get a good look
Was it a member of the team
Just let go of the memory
Keep it deep in your darkest dreams
Keep it deep in your darkest dreams

Looking back across the track
Dump it down in the river now
Looking back the sidewalk's cracked
I keep on stumbling, but I can't seem to fall
Down goes the mighty oak
Does anyone hear a sound
Do you think you'll be around
Looking back

Searching for the lost souls
Collecting pieces of the yesteryear
Bottle them up so they'll be around
Pick up their footprints from the ground

Calling
Those shadowy figures of our yesterdays
Drawing their picture, imitating their ways
So all the friends we've lost can stay

Looking back across the track
Dump it down in the river now
Looking back the sidewalk's cracked
I keep on stumbling, but I can't seem to fall
Down goes the mighty oak
Does anyone hear a sound
Do you think you'll be around
Looking back
