Flashing Back Songtext
von Kevin Coyne

Flashing back through the endless photographs
Such faces and such memories, can′t it be, can it be I'm just dreaming
I′m just leaving, leaving the ground again
Flashing back,
I'm supposed to be so realistic, so objective, so realistic
It's just a trick, a trick of the light on my eyes
I prefer the lies, I prefer the air
Don′t call me a fool (you′re a fool)
Don't call me a fool (you′re a fool)
Take your banners away from my eyes,
Take away your dogma and take away your lies
Don't call me a fool (you′re a fool), such a fool
Flashing back, there were better times at last, it seems
I'm liaising with my dreams


Closer to the one I am
The floating, the floating little man
Flashing back
Don′t call me a fool, don't call (you're a fool),
Don′t call me a fool (you′re a fool)
Don't call me a fool (you′re a fool)
Take her away (you're a fool) your prayer books and your strain
The things you did again and again
When I was so young
But now I know I prefer to flash back
Sleeping on the way I do
Maybe that′s the only truth
Flashing back with you (you're a dreamer,
You′re a fool, you're a fool, you're a fool)
