Feels Like We Only Go Backwards

It feels like I only go backwards babe,
Every part of me says go ahead,
I've got my hopes up again oh no, not again.
It feels like we only go backwards, darlin'.

I know that you think? when you call my name.
But I get it inside my head all day
When I realise I'm just hope in onto the? baby... your feelings don't show.

It feels like I only go backwards, babe,
Every part of me says go ahead,
I've got my hopes up again oh no, not again.
It feels like we only go backwards, darlin'.

In decision as in me oh no
Cause I guess? long ago
But that's the way it seems to go,
We try so hard to get to something real.
