Jasper Sloan Yip Back And Forth And To And Fro
Oh what a day it's been
The fool I was
What a mess, what have I gone
And done to you?
Just because I wanted to do good
Don't make it any use
So, take this folded photograph away
And don't you give it back
Because I don't want to think
About you or anybody else
Maybe I'll just leave this town
And find a field and just lay down
And sleep until I dream that song
That could explain exactly
What's gone wrong with me
"What's wrong with me?"
I'm all too often wondering
I know there's nothing wrong with me
But I invent the strangest things
Now there's an empty space where the garden was
Oh, everything dies just because
Its been a real bad couple months
And I just can't seem to adjust
To moods that swing like metronomes
Go back and forth and to and fro, oh
I've tried, but I don't understand
The weight of a human hand
No, every part escapes the reach
And strength of both my hands and feet
When I stop to think my heart
Does race at an uncomfortable pace
Because the biggest problem that I have
Is that I don't know what makes me sad
So I watch the days that come and go
Like I'm walking through the falling snow
I can see a path, and trace it back
But it will melt and leave no track
Well that's ok, because I've realized
That even though I'm going to die
I know right now that I'm alive
And that's enough to get me by
Though your memory persists you know the past don't exist at all
Though your memory persists you know the past don't exist at all
Though your memory persists you know the past don't exist at all
