Always in the Past Lyrics by Tears for Fears

The Seeds of Love (Super Deluxe)

1989

[Intro]
"Do you where I'm going?"
[Verse 1]
Money can't change the way you feel
Smoke stains on your fingertips
Made for life is no big deal
When there's something behind you that just doesn't fit
[Chorus]
And I can't stop thinking
Always in the past
No, no, I just can't stop thinking
Always in the past
It was always in
[Verse 2]
Smoke screens up at the break of day
Boy you must had a lonely night
And did your dreams reveal God's plan?
Did heaven say you're gonna make it alright?
[Chorus]
And I can't stop thinking
Always in the past
No, no, I just can't stop thinking
Always in the past
It was always in
[Bridge]
Walk those streets
Paved with gold
You and I we're one and the same
We've got a whole lot of soul
Dance those steps
Of the ancient plague
You could sharpen knives on the famous lives
That were never saved, that were never saved
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
I just can't stop thinking
Always in the past
No, no, I just can't stop thinking
Always in the past
It was always in
[Chorus]
I can't stop thinking
Always in the past
No, no, I just can't stop thinking
Always in the past
It was always in
