x3
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.
x3
Snowy basketball court, the cold courthouse steps,
hanging on every word, hearing everything you say as I retrace my
steps.
As I retrace my steps,
I retrace my steps,
I wear a lonely path, I retrace my steps and back.
x3
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.
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.
x4
End on
