Stephen & the Strangers - Every Time You Look Back lyrics

[Verse 1] When I was 21 Thought I was done I had some fun I thought And then at 24 I changed some more Walked out a door and thought back when When I was fourteen years I crossed a sea Entered a plea Then tried to flee Met up with you And came to see what's true [Chorus] You can't be more than your past It's true that prelude is a pest So you must blindly lead the rest of your life Cause every time you look back you lie You lie You lie You lie [Verse 2] I said I knew you when I can't pretend to know much more When I had met you I had just been born I coulda sworn that was the start When I was sixteen years I thought back when I had some friends Cherished a past That couldn't last That wouldn't do That never flew And wasn't true Or so I thought I knew [Chorus] You can't be more than your past It's true that prelude is a pest So you must blindly lead the rest of your life Cause every time you look back you lie You lie You lie You lie You lie You lie [Chorus] You can't be more than your past It's true that prelude is a pest So you must blindly lead the rest of your life Cause every time you look back you lie You lie You lie You lie You lie You lie
