Lyrics

Looking back, I'm looking in to where I'm from
On a winding road you can't see what's to come
Looking back I see the patterns one by one

It's amazing you can see how bright you glow
Always traveling on the dark side of the road
Every moment we can see your beauty grow

Full of wonder as we're getting closer
Cause we are the mystery looking back

Looking back at how we prayed for better days
Only one way through and through, the only way

Full of wonder as we're getting closer
Cause we are the mystery looking back

Hands are trembling as we pull the veil back
Cause we're so afraid there's no one there
Full of wonder as we're getting closer
Cause we are the mystery looking back

Looking back

It's amazing you can't see how bright you glow
How bright you glow...
