Looking Back (Letra)

Captain Jack

Captain Jack

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Looking back at public school
Reading playboy magazine
Insisting that the articles
Were the only things we’d read
Thinking then that love was meant to
Conquer
And if a girl said she liked you
Then you’d bonk her
Don’t try to lay that mush on me

Looking back a high school
Getting drunk for the local dance
Lonely boys – nervous girls
Grappling with romance
Thinking then that love
Meant something frightening
A sudden end as brutal
As bolts of lightening
Don’t know what it was, but it scared me

Chorus:
From one night stands to wedding bands
To struggling to stay free
Watching time move faster
As hold on helplessly
As love smoulders waiting to be tamed
We grow older staying much the same

Looking back a college life
Seemed like such a compromise
Unsure of my direction
Using brains as my disguise
Thinking then that love meant to
Remember
You only felt its warmth
When you surrendered
Don’t know what it was, but it scared me

Repeat chorus

As i was walking down the street
A pretty girl did i meet
She’s looking all so sweet
Got a major from her head to her feet

I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If i was looking back at her

She glowed with such a beautiful smile
She must have been a beautiful child
Man she was all so neat
A major from her head to her feet

I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If i was looking back at her

– guitar solo –

Her hair was curly shining bright
Her shoes in black were just delight
She wore the very best of clothes
And also black and nylon hose

I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If i was looking back at her

As i was walking down the street
A pretty girl did i meet
She was looking all so sweet
Got a major from her head to her feet

I was looking back
She was looking back
I was looking back at her

I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If i was looking back at her

Looking ba-a-ack over my life
I can see where i caused you strife
But i know, oh yes i know
I’d never make that same mistake again

Looking ba-a-ack over my deeds
I can see signs a wise man heeds
And if i just ha-ad the chance
I’d never make that same mistake again

Once my cup was overflowing
But i gave nothing in retu-u-urn
Now i can’t begin to te-ell you
What a lesson i have learned

Looking ba-a-ack over the slate
I can see love turned to hate
But i know, oh yes i know
I’d never make that same mistake again
