Bebe Stockwell & Chance Emerson Lyrics

"Driving Backwards"

It feels like an understatement
Not like the day we made it
Driving backwards
But time lay the first foundations
The rest was imagination
Building upwards

We closed in May
The debt repaid
Engagement day
The children raised
The cabin on the hillside still remains

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh)

I made the bed with patience
Swept up our old frustrations (Ooh-ooh, ooh)
Driving forwards
I spend the mornings painting
You laugh and you start complaining
It's spilling everywhere

We closed in May
The debt repaid
Engagement day
The children raised
The cabin on the hillside still remains

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh)

You turn to me and say
You turn to me and say
"This house that we made"

We closed in May
The debt repaid
Engagement day
Our children raised
The cabin on the hillside still remains

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
