Backwards and Forwards

[Verse 1]

Oh my god, my honey

I think about it all the time

Evenings dark but sunny

Play back across my mind

[Pre-Chorus 1]

In the dark walls, in the back bar

In the corner of that small town

Are yellow from the candle-light

I play it backwards and forwards

And any way I please, no direction feels true

[Chorus]

But you do, you do, in a way that I'll always love

You know, you do, in a way that I'll always defend

So how do I do right by you now?

[Verse 2]

Oh my god, my honey

Was I really so out of line?

The feeling once was heady

The feeling once was mine

[Pre-Chorus 2]

And the currents, the ripples

The slow flow to the ocean

From the backwaters of our old lives

They pull us sideways and forwards

And any way they please, no direction feels true

[Chorus]

But you do, you do, in a way that I'll always love

You know, you do, in a way that I'll always defend

So how do I do right by you now?

[Pre-Chorus 1]

In the dark walls, in the back bar

In the corner of that small town

A yellow from the candle-light

I play it backwards and forwards

And any way I please, no direction feels true

[Chorus]

But you do, you do, in a way that I'll always love

You know, you do, in a way that I'll always defend

In the dark walls in the back bar

In the corner of that small town

But you do, you do, in a way that I'll always love

I play it backwards and forwards

And any way I please

You know, you do, in a way that I'll always defend

So how do I do right by you now?

How do I do right by you now?

How do I do right by you now?

How do I do right by you now?

So how do I do right by you now?

How do I do right by you now?

How do I do right by you now?

How do I do right by you now?
