Can't Go Back

The Papercuts Can't Go Back Lyrics
1.Summer Long

Lyricist:Jason Quever

Can you wait? Baby wait
Can you wait all summer long?
Can you wait? Baby wait
Can you wait all summer long?

I'll be good, like I said
In the back of a limousine
On the way to the dance
When you said
You didn't need to be free

So just wait, baby wait
Can you wait all summer long?
Can you wait? Baby wait
You have to wait all summer long

This year we can't afford
To take another trip
So don't forget about me
When you're on that ship

So just wait

And you wait, and you wait
And you wait all summer long
And you wait, and you wait
And you wait all summer long

And you wait, and you wait
And you wait all summer long


2.Take The 227th Exit

Lyricist:Jason Quever

Take the 227th exit
To my wedding day
And if you don't think
That you can make it
Well, that's okay

Well, you were crying
Because you read my dear John
And you were so stunned
It was the 227th letter
I wrote you last month

Well, every proposal you got
Babe, you threw away
And you had so many lovers
That you didn't even know
All their names

And they would always
Think that I was the doorman
When they'd pass by
It didn't bother me
Until the 227th time

Standing on the bed
Looking like an ogre
I could get ugly too
Standing on the bed
Feeling just like Randy Johnson
I didn't know I could throw so hard

Well, you were looking like a dope
Who left his keys inside
Running down the street
Asking god to restore your mind
And did you think that you could
Stop my wedding before it begun

Well, it's the 227th entrance
We gotta run
Well, it's the 227th entrance
We gotta run


3.Dear Employee

Lyricist:Jason Quever

Treat me just like a dog
I don't mind at all
I feel bad, but babe, come on
You're a big girl now

Bring me my papers
Bring me my coffee
Pick up your check and go
You're just my employee now

I don't need you
I don't need you
I'm not alone

What can I say to you
To shut you up right now
Oh never mind, you don't got the nerve
And you're not the first

Bring me my papers
Bring me my coffee
Pick up your check and go
You're just my employee now

I don't need you
I don't need you no more
I'm not alone


4.Sandy

Lyricist:Jason Quever

Sandy, the sun's in your face
And you better rise before it's too late
Sandy, your world's at your feet

And you're gonna be whatever you want
And no one can be whatever you want
But you better leave and get to the spot

Sandy, you look so displeased
I know it seems mean to wake you this way
But Sandy, if I could save you from all those kids
And hide you away

You know that I would if only I could
I'd lock you away just for myself
I'd hide you away if only I could

Sandy, baby, now it's time for you
To rise and see the world outside
It ain't so bad, just don't you try
To be something you're not

Sandy, you're fine just how you are
Sandy, you're fine, because in my heart
You're still just a child
