Children are swimming
In the water, mmm-hmm
Playing and laughing, being golden
No way of knowin'
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back
Grass is getting browner
Trees are falling in the heat
Water's getting drier, people are hurting
Who are we fooling?
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back
Don't it make you cry?
Don't it make you want to lay down on the ground and die?
Hey, baby, sun is setting
On the good times, oh no
Funny, when I was younger
We loved the future, but the future knew
We were moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving backwards
We're moving back
Don't it make you cry?
Don't it make you want to shout out at the midnight sky?
I'm heading to the cabin
In Canada, Sheridan Lake
I'm sitting by the docks
Skippin' rocks
O Canada
Our bald eagles are moving up there for good
O Canada
Our bald eagles are moving up there for good
O Canada
Our bald eagles are moving up there for good
O Canada
The rest of us suckers would be moving up there if we could
