Album: Every Story Needs Another Picture (1986)

No Way Back

Oh yeahhhh

He?s half a boy and half a man
A machine gun in his hands
They told him to be a hero
He?s a killer on command
But in the middle of the action
He?s got to face the truth
It?s me or him, there?s no way out
There?s nothing he can do

There?s no
There?s no way back
Oh no oh no

There?s no
There?s no way back
Oh no oh no

Well she is just a woman
She only comes alive at night
She?s got to get some money
The dope keeps her alive
For a while she is in heaven
But she goes straight back to hell
When she gets cold turkey in a police cell

There?s no
There?s no way back
Oh no way

There?s no
There?s no way back
Oh no way, no way

Show me the way back, Baby

He is just an old man
Dreamin? about the past
When he?s lookin? back he realizes
That his life won?t ever last
Dreaming about the good and bad
About the things he could have done
But he will never get the chance to do it all over again

There?s no
There?s no way back
No

There?s no
There?s no way back
No way

Yeahhhhh?.

You?ve got to know
There?s no
There?s no way back
No

There?s no
There?s no way back
Ah no way back, no

There?s no
There?s no way back
Ah no way back, no no no
