Looking Back

from Dub in the District (2011) by Alific

lyrics

Verse 1:
B-Boy:
I remember way back
Everything I went through
Well a good friend is few,
but for me they were true
all we was trying to do
was a' just make it through
I never thought for a minute
that I'd finally find you
well I'd fight to defend
all the lovers and the friends
In turn to reminiscing all the time we spent
We always thought for the future
but we shouldn't have cared
All the best things in life,
we shared em right there

Chorus:
B-Boy
But then one day
When your looking back
I want to look back and say,
I did everything my way
hey

Verse 2:
Andy:
I was on my way, when you called
To tell me that I was wasting my time,
And that I shouldn't waist my time at all.
And I was thinking babe, you know better,
that I don't believe in time,
So why u wanna waist your with this call?
imagine my surprise when I opened my eyes
And you were standing t here by my side
For the life of me,
Why do you rock me endlessly?
But I do know babe, that u know
better than u lately seem to show,
So i must implore u to show so more…

Chorus 2:
B-Boy:
But then one day
When your looking back
I want to look back and say, I did everything my way
hey
Andy:
imagine my surprise when I opened my eyes
And you were standing t here by my side
For the life of me,
Why do you rock me endlessly?

Verse 3:
B-Boy:
But ya always find problems, no matter where you are,
But its how you choose to deal with them make problems what they are,
So never run a life race, run a marathon,
Cause You'll have more time to sing your favorite song,
So load the peace pipe, and load up the bong,
Load your troubles in a barrel and shoot em till their gone,
And for the poor boy on the bus give him your seat,
write a simple song to get your mother tapping here feet,
and do yourself a favor, love your neighbor I'm your savyor,
Add some sweetness to a situation for some extra flavor,
Mmm….mmmm

Chorus 3:
B-Boy:
But then one day,
When your looking back,
I want to look back,
Hey friend, if I had to do it over, I'd do it all again,
Well the time keeps a changing,
And the times move on,
You roll with the punches,
And keep on keeping on,
When you thinking about the future
Well you know you stare
Cause the best things in life,
We got em right here,

Outro:
Andy
Well I remember you in Spring and fall,
Or maybe it was never at all,
Either way I'm fine,
Cause I got you baby on my mind,
You could never waist my time,
You could never waist my time, no
You could never waist my time at all.

End Chorus:
B-Boy:
But then one day
When your looking back
I want to look back and say, I did everything my way
hey

Andy:
You could never waist my time,
Never be a was it of my time, no
You could never waist my time at all
