Lyrics for Feels Like We Only Go Backwards

It feels like I only go backwards, baby Every part of me says, "Go ahead" But I got my hopes up again, oh, no, not again Feels like we only go backwards, darling I know that you think You sound silly when you call my name But I hear it inside my head all day When I realise I'm just holding Onto the hope that, maybe Your feelings don't show It feels like I only go backwards, baby Every part of me says, "Go ahead" Then I got my hopes up again, oh, no, not again Feels like we only go backwards, darling The seed of all this indecision isn't me, oh, no 'Cause I decided long ago But that's the way it seems to go When trying so hard to get to something real It feels It feels like I only go backwards, darling Every part of me says, "Go ahead" But I got my hopes up again, oh, no, not again Feels like we only go backwards, darling It feels like I only go backwards, baby Every part of me says, "Go ahead" But I got my hopes up again, oh, no, not again Feels like we only go backwards, darling It feels like I only go backwards, baby Every part of me says, "Go ahead" But I got my hopes up again, oh, no, not again Feels like we only go backwards, darling
