Matthew Ryan - And Never Look Back lyrics

rate me

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

Every thing 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 houselights 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 look back
