I had it made, I never strayed

From a course that somebody else laid

I clenched my fists, I never miss

One night (one night) you find that ya can't turn back

So it's goodbye to the past

Here it comes, here it comes feel it comin'

Backlash backlash backlash

Oh yea, it's too bad now it's a backlash

Your time ain't long you don't belong

Maybe so but you hope that they're wrong

Thin skin gets thick it happens quick

Like a baby turn her very first trick

Hold tight (hold tight) hold tight for the ride of your life

And the lovers go by so fast

Here it comes, here it comes feel it comin'

Backlash backlash backlash

Used to love me used to care (do you care?) used to want me

Here it comes, here it comes I guess that's fair

Now, do you love me, do you care, do you want me

One night (one night) we find we're outta, outta time

Here it comes, here it comes here it comes a c'mon
