Heres to Looking Back by Attic Wolves Lyrics
I was a young man then a'looking for a shore
A place to hang my hat and a land I could explore
I had my mind made up and all my bags were packed
But that's when you showed up and knocked me on my back
So I picked myself up off the ground and I shook it off
I said, "Hey, what you want?" and you just looked at me and scoffed
You said, "You know darn well what I came 'round here looking for
And when I get it you'll be begging me for more
Oh, I remember well
Oh, back before we fell
Oh, before we got off track
Oh, here's to looking back
So I cleaned up and quit my rough and rowdy ways
I saddled up with you and we rode off for days
And oh the thrill of love we had still fills my mind
Or maybe you look more alluring from behind
Then right before our eyes the days turned to a year
And I was thinking maybe I could settle here
So I hocked my gun and got a diamond in its place
But when I knelt down you rode off without a trace
Oh, I remember well
Oh, back before we fell
Oh, before we got off track
Oh, here's to looking back
Where did I go wrong? We were going strong
I was loyal, I was true. I was so in love with you
Well I guess that's over now, what's passed is in the past
And I've set sail since then though I'm flying at half mast
And every now and then when the wind casts me about
I think of you and how your loving knocked me out
Oh, I remember well
Oh, back before we fell
Oh, before we got off track
Oh, here's to looking back
Oh, I remember well
Oh, back before we fell
Oh, before we got off track
Oh, here's to looking back
Here's to looking back
Here's to looking back
A place to hang my hat and a land I could explore
I had my mind made up and all my bags were packed
But that's when you showed up and knocked me on my back
So I picked myself up off the ground and I shook it off
I said, "Hey, what you want?" and you just looked at me and scoffed
You said, "You know darn well what I came 'round here looking for
And when I get it you'll be begging me for more
Oh, I remember well
Oh, back before we fell
Oh, before we got off track
Oh, here's to looking back
So I cleaned up and quit my rough and rowdy ways
I saddled up with you and we rode off for days
And oh the thrill of love we had still fills my mind
Or maybe you look more alluring from behind
Then right before our eyes the days turned to a year
And I was thinking maybe I could settle here
So I hocked my gun and got a diamond in its place
But when I knelt down you rode off without a trace
Oh, I remember well
Oh, back before we fell
Oh, before we got off track
Oh, here's to looking back
Where did I go wrong? We were going strong
I was loyal, I was true. I was so in love with you
Well I guess that's over now, what's passed is in the past
And I've set sail since then though I'm flying at half mast
And every now and then when the wind casts me about

Oh, I remember well
Oh, back before we fell
Oh, before we got off track
Oh, here's to looking back
Oh, I remember well
Oh, back before we fell
Oh, before we got off track
Oh, here's to looking back
Here's to looking back
Here's to looking back
