Well, I walked to the river Just to ease my troublin' mind And I thought about leavin' This cardboard world behind My paperdoll princess has just blown out on the door Leavin' nothing more than me And now the water is over my head And I keep on sinkin' like my soul was lead And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack But I'm in too deep and there ain't No turnin' back No, no, no, turnin' back No, no, no Ah, the breeze in the trees just Whisperin' Louise today And you can take back your rib 'cause I'm really not made of clay My ice cream dreams have just melted in the night I'm not standing here to fight the tide And now the water is over my head And I keep on sinkin' like my soul was lead And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack But I'm in too deep and there ain't No turnin' back No, no, no, turnin' back No, no, no Well, everybody's tellin' me that This is wrong and that ain't right But that can't be Because I saw the sunshine last night My crystal ball is blazin' but there's nothing there to see Oh, there's nothing left of me to see And now the water is over my head And I keep on sinkin' like my soul was lead And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack But I'm in too deep and there ain't No turnin' back No, no, no, turnin' back No, no, no
