Listening to The Weepies new CD, "Hideaway"
love love loving the lyrics of "can't go back now"
Yesterday, when you were young,
Everything you needed done was done for you.
Now you do it on your own
But you find you're all alone,
What can you do?
You and me walk on
Cause you can't go back now.
You know there will be days when you're so tired that you can't take another step,
The night will have no stars and you'll think you've gone as far as you will ever get
But you and me walk on
Cause you can't go back now
And yeah, yeah, go where you want to go
Be what you want to be,
If you ever turn around, you'll see me.
I can't really say why everybody wishes they were somewhere else
But in the end, the only steps that matter are the ones you take all by yourself
And you and me walk on
Yeah you and me walk on
Cause you can't go back now
Walk on, walk on, walk on
You can't go back now

Thanks for the tip! I downloaded the song (it's lovely) and downloaded Falling Slowly and Stay (John Mayer) at the same time. They've been on repeat all weekend.
Song lyrics are the best poetry there is. And those ones are good, really good. The Weepies are incredible, but I didn't know the new album was coming, so thanks for the heads up.
ps JM's song "Say" is one of the best songs around right now, glad you got on board, lesley!
If you ever turn around, you'll see me
