Moving Backwards

Ben Rector

I saw you there
And looked you straight between the eyes 
And said I'm leaving
And I don't care 
And I don't know if they were lies 
But I don't need them

Cause standing still 
Isn't easy 
When the world's moving backwards
The world's moving backwards
So get your fill 
But please believe me
That the world's moving backwards 
The world's moving backwards

And I say 
So what if they're just stories 
What if I need them?
So I pray 
That you'll give me grace if you can hear me
That you'll give me grace if you can hear

Cause standing still 
Isn't easy 
When the world's moving backwards 
The world's moving backwards 
So get your fill 
But please believe me
That the world's moving backwards 
The world's moving backwards

So I pray that you'll give me grace if you can hear me
That you'll give me grace if you can hear me
And I pray that you'll give us grace if you can hear me
You'll give us grace 
You'll give us grace
You'll give us grace

Cause standing still 
Isn't easy 
When the world's moving backwards 
The world's moving backwards 
So get your fill 
But please believe me
That the world's moving backwards 
The world's moving backwards
