There and back again Didn't know what I was walkin' into But when the feeling hit, to follow it Was all that I could do Now that I've thought it through Here alone at the journey's end I'd gladly go again, take it from one who's been There and back again She was wild and I was restless And our love was true We were young and time was endless Everything was new Driving fast and running breathless (it) blew my heart away When I first saw her face On that long, long gone day There and back again Goin' where we didn't dare before Too much wasn't enough of each other's love Oh that's for sure I was just waitin' around Killing time with all my dead beat friends That's what I did back then That was before I'd been There and back again She said we should find a highway Any one would do And we did not, say goodbye to Anyone we knew Hotels and auto graveyards Under the bright blue sky On the move, all the time The midday sun Made us high There and back again Goin' where we didn't dare before Too much wasn't enough of each other's love Yeah that's for sure I was just waitin' around Killing time with all my dead beat friends That's what I did back then That was before I'd been There and back again It lasted 'till it ended That's how it goes Sometimes things are just over Everybody knows Time has made us into strangers She's lost to me now But now and then when lights are low She comes to mind, and I go There and back again Didn't know what I was walkin'
