lyrics

One step forward - long road back
Thought I'd seen the last of the track
Said goodbye once before
Didn't think I'd be back at your door

How are you going, anyway?
Do you still need that good stuff
To get you through the day
I remember once we nearly lost you there
You paid the devil a one way fare

How's your mother, does she still call
You know you broke her heart and all
You turned to the shadows
When we showed you light
Are you still that man that I left that night

I'm not sorry for what we've done
We could never be like everyone
Water under the bridge or so you said
But the river's running
Like a rapid in my head
