Doubling Back Lyrics
it's been nice to hold your hand
as we shifted through this twisted abandon
i would like to think that you will know your way
we have dodged the ropes of rain
well the cats and dogs well they love to play
on the handsome fella with umbrella
who once saved you your day
and i will ask you to open my door from your side
from the inside after you drive
because i wanna stay wet for a little bit longer
that's why
i warm the engine compartment up
while i stand here and think it up
but it's a little too early to bury the worries
til this wish is my command
and i wonder, wonder which one of us
is gonna state the obvious
and i wonder if you already know
that i gotta let you go
i know this ain't the way i planned it
i guess i ain't the great romantic
and i'm not doubling back now
no doubling back
doubling back now
well before i catch you complaining that it hardly rains at all
let me stop to lock the top
for fear of it falling hard
by the eyes were ears and the arms are
scars of where the war was waged on words that we heard as a joke
how did it drown our love
oh lord
when it rains it's sure to pour
but when i look in your eyes
i fear i won't see surprise
that i'm not doubling back cause
i wonder, wonder which one of us
is gonna state the obvious
and then i wonder if you already know
that i gotta let you go
i know this ain't the way i planned it
i guess i ain't the great romantic
and i'm not doubling back now
no doubling back now
doubling back now
no doubling back now
doubling back now
no doubling back now
doubling back now
no doubling back now
doubling back now
no doubling back now
doubling back now
no doubling back now
no turning around now
no going back now
no

its about a relationship that went bad but hes okay with it

I see this song as Jason KNOWING that the relationship he has with this girl won't work out. "I wonder which one of us is gonna state the obvious" He knows it won't work, he knows he'll have to end it, he's gotta be strong and not "double back now".

It always makes me happy to listen to it, because it doesn't seem to be sad at all. I think it's about the end of a relationship and they are both cool with it, but only the words have to be said. ''The handsome fella'' might be someone that the girl cheated with, I don't know.
