lyrics

DON’T GO BACK TO 89

Orange and blossom light
Go back to 89
Two wrongs will make a right
Set the dial alright
But don’t count the strings you strike
From major to minor and back to might
From major to might

Twenty-twenty vision, marred by indecision
Once upon a time is here
Withdrawn introspective, defending your perspective
Everything that you hold dear

Your ending needs a rewrite
Before we turn the bright lights
The bright lights
Cut! Light!

Hold on tight
Orange and blossom light
Don’t go back
Go back to 89
Two wrongs
Two wrongs will make a right
Set the dial alright
But don’t count the strings you strike
From major to minor and back to might
From major to might

Obsession mixed with purpose
Don’t scratch the perfect surface
Restless but forgiving
I need you to be living
Dying’s not an option here

Your final cut’s not made the grade
Fade out, fade in, crossfade
And Fade, and Fade, and Cut!

Hold on tight

But don’t count the tears you dried
Set the dial alright
But don’t count the tears you dried
….
