Jason Allen - The Way Back Lyrics

It was so long ago, back when we were young
Your face was unknown and you came here all alone
Down from the hill we walked
All along this song faded through
It was all we ever knew

I can never honestly say what we should've done
Yesterday went to the wall, now
You and me could walk that way again
But that was way back, babe

I could take all the pain
There's nothing like playing the long game once again
But the storm won't carry you home
Carry your hopes or carry you on
I warn you

Years go by but we never let go of the past here
A37 on a sunny Saturday and I'm always there
The open road's the only way to go
It's a way back, babe

This could go all the way
Something 'bout sinning and weakness all again
And if the the storm can't carry you home
Carry your hopes or carry you on
Maybe I will do

She said: "Meet me down by the riverbank
Cover your tracks dear
Old memories of a sunny Saturday never disappeared
And all I can say will never change the way I think about us"

And yet the storm might carry us home
Carry our hopes, carry us on

Yeah the storm might carry you home
Carry you home to me
There's a way back, babe
There's a way back, babe

There's the way back, babe
There's a way back, babe
