And Never Look Back

People and cars on the avenue

But I can't hear a thing 'cause I'm looking for you

I've been haunted by all that I can't have

I should make a list of every near miss

Everything that fell and brushed my fingertips

I'm shattered, gone is the wait and see

Now I'll say goodbye to all of that

Lower my head, turn away and never look back

A quitter never quits, he just changes his mind

This song I sing is true and sublime

It comforts me but it won't pay the rent

I leaned in for to give her a kiss

I spilt her drink, I burnt her wrist

With my cigarette, I'm clumsy when I get close

Now I'll say goodbye to all of that

Lower my head, turn away and never look back

I wanted it all but I'll settle for some

At the end of the day it don't matter what you want

Come the end of days all you get is the truth

On needles and pins the story begins

The world outside, the house lights dim

Well anyway what else can a poor boy do?

Now I'll say goodbye to all of that

Lower my head, turn away and never

Now I'll say goodbye to all of that

Lower my head, turn away and never look back
