Walk Backwards is a song about how blurry the line between platonic and romantic love is. This song is about the beauty and complexity of relationships, and was written specifically about Maude Latour’s best friend Morgan. Maude believes we put too much emphasis on romantic relationships, explaining...
[Verse 1]
I guess I'll never understand
The line between our love and romance
'Cause when I look at you I
Fall right into a dream
Under galaxies in the middle of the city in New York
So, I say thanks to an unknown force
[Pre-Chorus]
Me and my friends do whatever we want
And by friends I really only mean one in particular
And that's you
[Chorus]
Mmm, your hair's untied
And it's only just about a quarter to nine
You live east, so I walk backwards
Sun's slippin' south on the west-side
And we still got the rest of the night
You live east, so I walk backwards babe
[Verse 2]
I know your boyfriend's mad
Watch you grabbin' my hand all day
So, I just play it cool
'Cause, I can't believe I found you
Within the Milky Way out of all eight billion people
So, I say thanks to an unknown force
[Pre-Chorus]
Me and my friends do whatever we want
And by friends I really only mean one in particular
(And) And that's you (It's you)
[Chorus]
Mmm, your hair's untied
And it's only just about a quarter to nine
You live east, so I walk backwards
Sun's slippin' south on the west-side
And we still got the rest of the night
You live east, so I walk backwards babe
[Outro]
You live east so I (Walk backwards babe)
(While you scooter past me, hey)
You live east so I (Walk backwards babe)
Walk backwards babe
You live east so I (Walk backwards babe)
(While you scooter past me, hey)
You live east so I (Walk backwards babe)
Walk backwards babe
