Can't Go Back - Carla Muller, 2012

 

can't go back video

 

I have searched for fairies

Here in the grass

Among white moths and leaves

In summers past

And I've wished on stars not knowing

Which ones would last

When youth still sprung belief

And held it fast

But

You can't go home again

You can't go home

Can't go home

You can't go home

Can't go back no more

You can't go back

Too many years have tangled

There on the the tracks

Too many years have tangled

There on the the tracks

 

And I've known days when I was

Lost in song

Up in my apple blossoms

When I was young

Strong branches reached around me

To find the sun

Before the scarab's feast

And all was gone

So

You can't go home again

You can't go home

Can't go home

You can't go home

Can't go back no more

You can't go back

Too many years have tangled

There on the the tracks

Too many years have tangled

There on the the tracks

 

The garden wall remembers

The dark of night

Sweet cool, it holds for me

In harsh daylight

And I lay my cheek upon its

Weathered might, and I see

Sharp starlight, hear those crickets

The world at night

But

You can't go home again

You can't go home

Can't go home

You can't go home

Can't go back no more

You can't go back

Too many years have tangled

There on the the tracks

Too many years have tangled

There on the the tracks

Too many years have tangled

There on the the tracks
