Travis Back in the Day song lyrics

We stood at the end of the summer

Taking a look at the sun

We walked to the edge of the suburb

Wondering what had begun

And how is a boy in a new pair of shoes

Supposed to get up without hurting

When nothing is certain but twitching at curtains

Nothing is further from getting you further

And back in the day when the way and the summers were long

I'm in the way when once all I could do was belong

I keep looking back and it's misting

Something is caught in my eye

Time keeps on turning and twisting

When good can be made into bye

From the tip of my tongue it's all coming out wrong

How can I tell you I love you

When where we are standing I'm not understanding

Where we go next, is it best just to guess

And back in the day when the way and the summers were long

I'm in the way when once all I could do was belong

Do you have to soldier on alone

You don't have to shoulder all the load alone

And day's going fast and I can't let it pass

I'll always have something to tell you

But where we are standing I'm not understanding

Where we go next, is it best just to guess

And back in the day when the way and the summers were long

I'm in the way when once all I could do was belong
