retrace

downie, gord

high as an elephant's eye

before we even left

and when the party had died

and as we drank the rest

i retrace my steps

snowy basketball court

cross the cold courthouse steps

hanging on every word

hearing everything you say as

i retrace my steps

i retrace my steps

i wear a lonely path

i retrace my steps and back

woke up this afternoon

a pale sun in the west

i haven't left my room

i haven't taken a step

as i retrace my steps

i retrace my steps until no trace remains

and i'll retrace my steps again

i'll retrace my steps

though i know we're all saying 'goodbye'

you know

i'll retrace my steps again

tonight

tonight
