V1)Sing through golden forests chasing rainbows
sitting on the old log drinking demon-eyed tea
watch as Roger the ant is turning carwheels
happy with his own life full of simplicity
Ch)He ain't gonna turn around
Ain't gonna ever look back
Waits 'till he hears the sound
of the backdoor slam
V2)High atop the mountain theres a treasure
who'll find it first,well nobody knows
but if you search,please beware of stormy weather
you'll cry when you feel that eastern wind blow
Ch)But please don't turn around
Please don't ever look back
Wait 'till you hear the sound
of the backdoor slam
V3)Sweet Matilda kissed me on the stairwell
gave me a feeling like none before
next morning,ringing of the school bell
reminded me that I needed some more
Ch)But I won't turn around
I won't ever look back
I'll Wait 'till I hear the sound
of the backdoor slam
I remember in the winter how we froze all night
searching for some shelter neath the brisk moonlight
I miss those days waking to the morning's frost
ain't it a jip we can't flip whats already been tossed
ain't it a sin we can't win whats already been lost
but summer came soon enough to warm us up
but they did just like the dusk kills the dawn
and ain't it sad the love we had is all but gone
and ain't it hard to heal the scars and just move on
I can still remember sitting in Spetembers foggy haze
the night you gave gave me the letter explaining it would be better if we went our seperate ways
and I went to sleep in a king size bed not knowing if I was live or dead with the echoes of your voice ringing in my head
ain't it a crime we can't find the time to begin
ain't it a shame its all a game that we can't win
and ain't it sad the love we had is all but gone
and ain't it hard to heal the scars and just move on
