Square One lyrics

Tom Petty

Had to find some higher ground
had some fear to get around
you can't say what you don't know
later on won't work no more
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

(Chorus:)
square one, my slate is clear
rest your head on my my dear
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 has more dogs than bones
I could never wear those clothes
It's a dark victory
you won and you also lost
told you she was satisfied
but it never came across

(chorus x3)
