If I woke up in the mornin' 
And the world was back to front 
There was sunshine in the evenin' 
And the moon came out for lunch 

I wouldn't mind walkin' backwards with you 
At least we'd always know where we'd be goin' to 
We could talk till we forget how to talk 

And we could learn to laugh again 
Like when we were children 
We could learn to dance again 
Like nobody is watchin' 

If everyone was gettin' young 
There'd be a smile on your face 
If all the friends that passed away 
Came back to this place 

We'd be puttin' down the daisies 
Drinkin' milk and feelin' lazy 
There's no sense in any senses 
What's the use in independence? 

We could play, reverse the tears that came 
We could walk till we forget how to walk 
And crawl, till we forget anything at all 

And we would laugh again 
Like when we were children 
We could learn to dance again 
Like nobody is watchin'
We could learn to look right 
Into each others eyes 
'Cause we got nothin' to hide 

We got nothin' but to laugh again 
Like when we were children 
Like when we were children 

Back to front, front to back 
Will you come backwards with me 
Backwards with me? 

Front to back, back to front 
Will you come backwards with me 
Backwards with me? 

We could learn to laugh again 
Like when we were children 
We could learn to dance again 
Like nobody is watchin' 

We could learn to laugh again 
Like when we were children 
We could learn to smile again 
Like nobody is watchin' 

Backwards with me
