Back Where I Started Lyrics

Dancing backwards wound up in another place and time
No way of knowing where I was headed to
Maybe I was running away like always
Sure wasn't ready for something new

How did I wander back where I started?
I’m so glad I found you there

Time was wasting away, like water through my hands
And blood was dripping from my stone
Caught up in the motion, motion that is every man
Spinning out of control

How did I wander back where I started?
I’m so glad I found you there
Yes, I’m so glad I found you there

Seems like I’ve known you for a thousand years
Seems like I’ve watched you grow from a child
It’s hard to remember the first time I saw your face
With the moonlight in your smile

How did I wander back where I started?
I’m so glad I found you there
I’m so glad I found you there
Oh, I’m so glad I found you there
And I’m so glad I found you there

Cover art for Back Where I Started lyrics by Derek Trucks Band

Saw tedeschi trucks band play this recently. Susan introduced the song by saying Derek wrote it as an instrumental and it stayed that way for a long time until one day Warren Haynes was at their house, these words came to him in a dream
