Square One Songtext
von Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Had to find some higher ground
I had some fear to get around
You can′t say what you don't know
And later on won′t work no more
And the last time through I hid my tracks
So well I could not get back
Yeah, my way was hard to find
Can't sell your soul for peace of mind
Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me, my dear
It took a world of trouble, took a world of tears
It took a long time to get back here
Try so hard to stand alone
Struggle to see past my nose
Always had more dogs than bones
I could never wear those clothes


It's a dark victory
You won and you also lost
Told her she was satisfied
But it never came across
Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me, my dear
It took a world of trouble, took a world of tears
It took a long time to get back here
Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me, my dear
It took a world of trouble, took a world of tears
It took a long time to get back here
Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me, my dear
It took a world of trouble, took a world of tears
Yeah, it took a long time to get back here
