Throwback Lyrics - Tony Banks

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

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

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
