Lili McGovern: Music

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)
• MP3 play whole song, lo-fi (modem)

Can’t take it back
I said it without thinking
Can’t take it back
The hurt I caused in your eyes
Is driving a knife in my side

I saw the words fly straight out of my mouth
Like a sunlit sparrow heading due south
Sure to hit the sun
Collide with the moon
Stars are laughing at this same old tun

Can’t take it back
Wish I may,
Wish I might
Can’t take it back
What I said tonight

Now the alphabet lies scattered at your feet
I hang my head
Beat a hasty retreat
It’s so cold here in outerspace
When can I rejoin the human race?

Can’t take it back
Wish I may,
Wish I might
Can’t take it back
What I said tonight

Can’t take it back
I said it without thinking
Can’t take it back
The look I caused in your eyes
Stars are laughing at me tonight….

Away….let me go away...
