about

Midtempo anthem of flyover country. Love and hope in a changing world, but you can’t go back.

lyrics

Time moves like a river
You can either sink or swim
A wise man learns to forgive her
For all she's done to him
No one's getting younger
But a few aren't getting old
It's all in what you feel
And not in what you're told

But you can't go back to Kansas
I was there just yesterday
You can't go back to Kansas
It just up and blew away
Oh but I will go on loving you
It's easier that way
But you can't go back to Kansas
'Cause that was yesterday

See the sun rise and fall
Feel the earth beneath my shoes
And there's no use in believing
That you were born and cursed to lose
So why not go on dreaming then
Pick anyone you choose
There's nothing to be down about
You either win or lose

But you can't go back to Kansas
I was there just yesterday
You can't go back to Kansas
It just up and blew away
Oh but I will go on loving you
It's easier that way
But you can't go back to Kansas
'Cause that was yesterday
