Straight Back Lyrics by Washed Out

Just Tell Me That You Want Me: A Tribute to Fleetwood Mac

0

What can I say this time?
Which card shall I play?
The dream is not over
The dream is just away

And you will fly like some little wing
Straight back to the sun
The dream was never over
The dream has just begun
The dream has just begun

Fingers find
The ivory keys and a song
Begins to begin
Like a wolf on the run

And you will find while in the wind
Something that you lost
The dream was never over, no
The dream was only lost
(Hours and hours of waiting for you)
(So strong and so fleeting)

The dream has just begun
(And hours of waiting for you)
(In hopes of meeting)
The dream has just begun
(This way)
Well, the dream has just begun

She remembers how good it can be
He remembers a melody
Ah, in the shadow of my shadow
In a gleam

He remembers how good it can be
She remembers a melody
Well, in the shadow of my shadow
In a gleam

(Hours and hours of waiting for you)
(So strong and so fleeting)
The dream has just begun
(Hours and hours of waiting this way)
(Meeting, me)

Hours of waiting for you
(So strong and so fleeting)
The dream has just begun
(Meeting this way)

Straight back now
(Hours and hours of waiting)
(So strong and so fleeting)
Hours and hours waiting this way
Hours and hours of waiting this way

Straight back, straight back
Straight back, yeah
He remembers a melody
He remembers how good it can be
