Backwards Forwards Lyrics

There was a day that I believed

The world was only what I see

How naive I've come to be

To think that peace means you don't bleed

When I was a child I played childish games

Ran through the yard with made up names

Now those memories are up in frames

Those days have passed, only time's to blame

Now we move forward

Wishing we could go backward

Will you catch me when I'm falling

Will you love me when I go

Will you wait for me in the evening

Will you be the one I'll be waiting for

When our eyes meet there's a green exchange

The words on my lips I just can't explain

If I spoke my mind I'd be afraid

I'm so afraid we'd separate

Wishing we could go backward

But now we're moving forward, oh

Will you catch me when I'm falling

Will you love me when I go

Will you wait for me in the evening

Will you be the one I'll be waiting for

In all my life I'll never meet

Someone like you

In your shades of green

In all my life I'll never meet

Someone like you

In your shades of green

Will you catch me when I'm falling

Will you love me when I go

Will you wait for me in the evening

Will you be the one I'll be waiting for

Will you catch me when I'm falling

Will you love me when I go

Will you wait for me in the evening

Will you be the one I'll be waiting for

Oh, the one I'm waiting for

In all my life, I'll never meet

Someone like you
