Looking Back

(album: Parachute - 2019)

I've been missing home
Late nights when I'm alone
Think back and paint a scene
Soft lights and quiet streets
So easy not to leave

I'd be such a fool to ever
Think I could have stayed forever
Nothing perfect ever lasts
I know that I shouldn't do this
Memories can only fool us
But is it living in the past
If I'm only looking back?

In my mind nothing's changed
Still lifes frozen in place
Reach out and grab ahold
Fall down the rabbit hole
I cling to what I know

I'd be such a fool to ever
Think I could have stayed forever
Nothing perfect ever lasts
I know that I shouldn't do this
Memories can only fool us
But is it living in the past
If I'm only looking back?
Looking back

Lights out and try to sleep
Look up and start to think
How I don't want to spend my life
Stuck between what's in front of me
And the way it used to be

I'd be such a fool to ever
Think I could have stayed forever
Nothing perfect ever lasts
I know that I shouldn't do this
Memories can only fool us
But is it living in the past
If I'm only looking back?

I've been missing home
