Backwards - Live in Boulder

[Verse 1]
Children are swimming
In the water, mmm-hmm
Playing and laughing, being golden
No way of knowin'

[Chorus]
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back

[Verse 2]
Grass is getting browner
Trees are falling in the heat
Water's getting drier, people are hurting
Who are we fooling?

[Chorus]
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back

[Post-Chorus]
Don't it make you cry?
Don't it make you want to lay down on the ground and die?

[Verse 3]
Hey, baby, sun is setting
On the good times, oh no
Funny, when I was younger
We loved the future, but the future knew

[Chorus]
We were moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back

[Post-Chorus]
Don't it make you cry?
Don't it make you want to shout out at the midnight sky?

[Verse 4]
I'm heading to the cabin
In Canada, Sheridan Lake
I'm sitting by the docks
Skippin' rocks

[Outro]
O Canada
Our bald eagles are moving up there for good
O Canada
Our bald eagles are moving up there for good
O Canada
Our bald eagles are moving up there for good
O Canada
The rest of us suckers would be moving up there if we could
