Everything is (the Reverse)

FootPath Music / APRA

Vs 1

We were walkin’ and talkin’, deep into the night.

About the good times and the bad times,

And with everything right

We remembered the pain that we shared.

Chorus

And now looking back it would seem,

As we stand with our backs to the wind.

We’re about to walk down two separate roads

And everything is the reverse,

To what it would seem.

Vs 2

There was fire and smoke, and sparks in the air.

And if looks could kill I’d be dead.

And I wanted out but I was scared,

Of being left alone in the dark, again, naturally.

Repeat Chorus

And now looking back it would seem,

As we stand with our backs to the wind.

We’re about to walk down two separate roads

And everything is the reverse,

To what it would seem.

Vs 3

Sometimes in love we are blind.

And it’s only after time has passed by that we realise.

So with foolish hearts we live with each other,

And it’s only in the end that we find, we’re alone, in the face of the wind.

Repeat Chorus

And now looking back it would seem,

As we stand with our backs to the wind.

We’re about to walk down two separate roads

And everything is the reverse,

To what it would seem.
