Formalist - Wind the Tape Back Lyrics



Formalist - Wind the Tape Back Lyrics




Wind the tape back
Fumble with drawers and keys
Been listening to yourself from a year ago

Wind the tape back
Rub your hands, load the reel
Some dusty old ghost of a memory

Heave a great sigh
Wipe your mouth little scoundrel
Clear your throat and begin to record

A page a day
You peer inside
You always leave it at that
As midnight passes by

A page a day
You peer inside
You always leave it at that
As midnight passes by

With tears again
You wouldn't want that back

Not with the fire in you now
Not with the fire in you now

Wind the tape back
Rub your hands, load the reel
Some dusty old ghost of a memory

Switch it on and listen
Switch if off and resume
Recollect in particular
It's gone too soon
A passage you can't find
Motionless and staring
While the tape runs on
The best years are gone

Switch it on and listen
Switch if off and resume
Recollect in particular
It's gone too soon
A passage you can't find
Motionless and staring
While the tape runs on
The best years are gone
