Feels Like We Only Go Backwards Lyrics
[Chorus]
It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says, "Go ahead"

I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards, darling
It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says, "Go ahead"
I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards, darling
