Can't Go Back Now

Take the sky for example, a canvas of a billion suns But our local hero shines them out by day Save for the winking of a Venus or Mars Even the stars sometimes fade to gray Even the stars hide away I see the bare moon raise his big, bald head I see my friends played the fool I'll make my own way in the wide world Just now I don't want to wander too far Even the stars sometimes fade to gray Even the stars hide away Even the stars sometimes fade to gray Even the stars hide away Some will call me all kinds of names Some will say I don't play the right kind of game I try to be honest, try to be kind And honestly leave when I know that it's time I know that it's time Hear a phoebe sing his only song This summer's day is hovering I'll ride my full heart, troubles fly like embers Out the windows of our traveling car Even the stars sometimes fade to gray Even the stars hide away Even the stars sometimes fade to gray Even the stars hide away Even the stars sometimes fade to gray Even the stars hide away
