Take back today Lyrics by Dads

I’ll Be the Tornado

0

[Verse 1]
You made footprints on mountains
You made a change in an old dirt
We showed each other what we're good at
We taught each other self worth
We yelled so loudly that we hurt each other's ears
And that summer we all made a pact to face our fears
And that night I met your dad and your older brother
And I wish I could've been there to have met your mother
And I wish you could've been here to have met my father
When he wasn't always in pain or some doctor's new project

[Chorus 1]
It's just everything is always a countdown
Let's take time away

[Verse 2]
Lately I've been worried I've been spending
My life only living part of it
I've been spending so much time in
The future I forgot about the present
I wanna go back to when I was young and
Throwing rocks into ponds I didn't own
I wanna go back to your baby powder feet and
Your sweaty, sweaty summer clothes

[Chorus 2]
If everything is always a countdown
Then I wanna take time away
Am I moving way too fast now?
Or am I trailing at a snail's pace?

[Verse 3]
I heard my favorite song but I couldn’t stand the sound
I've been running under thunder storms
Just waiting for it to rain down
Its your worn bed sheets
Its your warm pillow
I want to forever follow
Tell me where does your shadow go?

[Bridge]
Oh, where does your shadow go?
Oh, where does your shadow go?
Oh, where does your shadow go?
Oh, where does your shadow go?
1, 2, 3, go!

[Chorus 3]
If everything is always a countdown
If everything is always a countdown
If everything is always a countdown
I want to take back today
