I am the throwback
but you don't know i walk amongst you every day
i don't need moonlight
or any secret word to make the change in me
I don't know what you see in your rules
in conversation or in delicate feelings of romance
If you know some place i can go
then i ask you lead me to the door
In deepest midnight
that time of night when even dogs believe in ghosts
i walk the backstreets
of every dirty city searching for the route
That leads me back to where i belong
i don't know how but i'm trapped in the wrong time
If you know some place i can go
then i ask you lead me to the door
Nobody sees me no one believes me
nobody understands the words that i say
Tell me you see me say you believe me
tell me you understand and i will be free - oh
I guess i don't fit the times
i'm just a throwback
i'm trapped but still i search for a clue
from far away i hear the call
come on back to me
I am the throwback
i have no use for anything i see
i'd like to find a country
where no one else has ever been before
I don't know what you're wanting from life
i just don't understand your tricks and your slyness
If you know some place i can go
then i ask you lead me to the door
(i'm just a throwback)
(i'm just a throwback) i'm just a throwback
(i'm just a throwback) don't need no moonlight
(i'm just a throwback) i'm just a throwback
