Backwards Going [The Falling Wallendas featuring Todd Sucherman]

Backwards Going
Written by Allen Keller and Scott Bennett

Going backwards
You'll know where you've been
Going backwards
You're innocent as sin
Going backwards
The answers are plain
Going backwards
The questions still remain

La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la

Going backwards
You never run out of time
Going backwards
The future's far behind

Traveling through life
However we please
The future's just a misplaced memory
But time already happened
Life's just a needle drop
Time never started
So time won't ever stop

Going backwards
Going backwards
Going backwards
Going backwards

Yodel ay hee hoo
Yodel ay hee hoo
Yodel ay hee hoo
Yodel ay hee hoo
Yodel ay hee hoo
Yodel ay
Going backwards

Going backwards
Going backwards
Going backwards
Going backwards

Going backwards
Going backwards
Going backwards
Going backwards
Going backwards

Going backwards
Going backwards
Going backwards
Going backwards
Going backwards

Interpretation

You can't go back in time and change things and the future will be a memory before you know it. We all just make it up as we go along, and in the grand scheme of things our lives are momentary.
