lyrics
I am walking backwards.
When i’m by your side
I am going back in time through my life
to when I was the blackbird
waiting in the song.
There was nothing wrong with my wings all along.
Nothing broke that a smile can’t fix,
yours always does the trick.
Nothing sunk that won’t lift with a laugh.
Be my be my be my be my be my be my be my be my
Be my be my be my be my be my be my be my be my
life raft,
life raft.
I am walking backwards.
When i’m by your side
I am going back in time through my life
to when all that mattered
was all the joy
I felt all around when I was just a boy.
Nothing broke that a smile can’t fix,
yours always does the trick.
Nothing sunk that won’t lift with a laugh.
Be my be my be my be my be my be my be my be my
Be my be my be my be my be my be my be my be my
life raft,
life raft.
I am walking backwards.
When i’m by your side
I am going back in time through my life
to when I was the master
of being young,
and happiness was my mother tongue.
Nothing broke that a smile can’t fix,
yours always does the trick.
Nothing sunk that won’t lift with a laugh.
Be my be my be my be my be my be my be my be my
Be my be my be my be my be my be my be my be my
life raft,
life raft.
