Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Baby, if you could, would you go back to the start?
Take any fresh steps or watch it all fall apart again?
[Verse 2]
Play another song here, then you can leave
With your delicate wings, I used to weave
Maybe there's an undertow here
Or maybe this is stuck up in the air
I know how it looks but all that glitters ain't gold
[Verse 3]
You gave me magical, I gave you wonderful
Cut that invisible cord or I'll starve you
Of what's understandable
Let's make immeasurable moves to the left
Or the right but not central 'cause
[Verse 4]
You gave me magical, I gave you wonderful
Cut that invisible cord or I'll starve you
Of what's understandable
Let's make immeasurable moves to the left
Or the right but not central 'cause
[Verse 5]
You gave me magical, I gave you wonderful
Let's make this biblical
And hang from our invisible cords
[Verse 6]
Baby, if you could, would you go back to the start?
Take any fresh steps or watch it all fall apart again?
[Verse 7]
It could have been a wonderful year
Instead we might not make it to the end
Everybody cares, but nobody knows
[Verse 8]
You gave me magical, I gave you wonderful
Cut that invisible cord or I'll starve you
Of what's understandable
Let's make immeasurable moves to the left
Or the right but not central 'cause
[Verse 9]
You gave me magical, I gave you wonderful
Cut that invisible cord or I'll starve you
Of what's understandable
Let's make immeasurable moves to the left
Or the right but not central 'cause
[Verse 10]
You gave me magical, I gave you wonderful
Let's make this biblical
And hang from our invisible cords
[Verse 11]
You gave me magical, I gave you wonderful
Let's make this biblical
And hang from our invisible cords
[Verse 12]
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
[Verse 13]
Baby, how can you walk away?
Baby, how can you walk away?
Baby, how can you walk away?
Baby, how can you walk away?
[Verse 14]
Baby, how can you walk away?
Baby, how can you walk away?
Baby, how can you walk away?
Baby, how can you walk away?
[Verse 15]
Baby, if you could, would you go back to the start?
Take any fresh steps or watch it all fall apart again?
