Eric Andersen You Can't Relive The Past
What's said is said, what's done is done
you can't relive the past
the water's blown and so's the bridge
you can't relive the past
memory runs right by your eyes
so real and so fast
the dam is burst the acid's spilt
you can't relive the past
You can't relive the past
you can't relive the past
the dam is burst the acid's spilt
you can't relive the past
I sat beauty on my knees
you can't relive the past
I ran my guns for Robert E. Lee
you can't relive the past
one lesson learned from poetry
you can't hide behind the mask
no mask could hide your liberty
you can't relive the past
You can't relive the past
you can't relive the past
no mask could hide your liberty
you can't relive the past
BRIDGE:
You life turns grey, the kids leave school
it's so subtle, it's so cruel
your knee has gotten rusty
the wild west got taped fast
you sit alone with your remote control
but you can't relive the past
You can't relive the past
you can't relive the past
you sit alone with your remote control
you can't relive the past
Amuse yourself with anything
you can't relive the past
mistakes are what they'll always be
you can't relive the past
the many things you thought you'd save
were like stocks in a crash
your future's now just gettin up
you can't relive the past
You can't relive the past
you can't relive the past
your future's now just gettin up
you can't relive the past
Did you really think this would would change
your future's now just gettin up
you can't relive the past
reality's not what the headlines say
your future's now just gettin up
you can't relive the past
then suddenly it's all over
before the sail reached the top-most mast
you're driftin like a wooden doll
you can't relive the past
You can't relive the past
you can't relive the past
you're driftin like a wooden doll
you can't relive the past
BRIDGE:
I walked out to Dexter Street
at the crossroads I heard a saxophone
so many loves are dead and gone
so many lives have crashed
I'll never know what to make of it
except you can't relive the past
You can't relive the past
you can't relive the past
I'll never know what to make of it
you can't relive the past
I wake up now that's all I know
you can't relive the past
the future's constant tyranny
you can't relive the past
tomorrow I might draw a map
but most plans never last
still it's fun though you know
you can't relive the past
You can't relive the past
you can't relive the past
still it's fun though you know
you can't relive the past
You can't relive the past
you can't relive the past
still it's fun though you know
you can't relive the past
