Backwards Lyrics by Alexander Stewart

Backwards

2019

[Chorus]
I don't wanna hit reverse
You’ve already got me in so deep
It's only gonna make it worse
We break up, make up, on repeat

[Verse 1]
Wait a minute
Am I losing my mind?
Tell me are you with it
'Cause you keep tryna rewind
Say you’re coming over
Is that just another line?
(Is that just another line?)

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, we would talk all the way through the night
Pick you up and we drive
No I never thought we'd be stopping
You keep sayin' we're fine
But that look in your eyes
Oh, it just can't lie

[Chorus]
I don't wanna hit reverse
You've already got me in so deep
It's only gonna make it worse
We break up, make up, on repeat

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
We’re going backwards
Oh-oh, oh-oh
We’re going backwards
We're going backwards

[Verse 2]
I get the feeling
That we’re living in the past
And I'm kinda stressin'
Are we slipping through the cracks?
When we find a present
Is it ever gonna last?

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, we would talk all the way through the night
Pick you up and we drive
No I never thought we'd be stopping
You keep sayin’ we're fine
But that look in your eyes
Oh, it just can't lie

[Chorus]
I don't wanna hit reverse
You've already got me in so deep
It's only gonna make it worse
We break up, make up, on repeat

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
We're going backwards
Oh-oh, oh-oh
We're going backwards
(Break up, make up, break up, make up)

[Pre-Chorus]
Talk all the way through the night
Pick you up and we drive
No I never thought we'd be stopping
You keep sayin' we're fine
But that look in your eyes
Oh, it just can't lie

[Chorus]
I don't wanna hit reverse
You've already got me in so deep
It's only gonna make it worse
We break up, make up, on repeat

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
We're going backwards
Oh-oh, oh-oh
We're going backwards
We're going backwards
We're going backwards
