My head is full of empty phrases
And a noise I've never heard
Is it that I'm feeling sorry
For the things I do regret

You said we'd better be moving slowly
And it's time to take a rest
Just be aware of who we are
And turn back time instead

We're moving backwards
Into a life we had before
Appreciate forever more

We're moving backwards
And lead a life we had before
But love the simple things that we used to ignore

Moving backwards
Moving backwards

In the wake of indecision
Reality can be unkind
Some they lead and some they follow
Or is it blind leading blind

So we'd better be looking backwards
And it's time to take a view
At the promise of tomorrow
We can start anew

We're moving backwards
Into a life we had before
Appreciate forever more

We're moving backwards
And lead a life we had before
But love the simple things that we used to ignore

Moving backwards
Moving backwards
