[Verse 1]
Silver winged, broken English, boys they smoke
Talk and joke above the water
New York lady, holding in her heavy hand
Sacred lantern, guiding dawn

[Chorus]
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that looking back
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that looking back
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that

[Verse 2]
Casting glances backwards, but it's not your fault
Turned to salt for wondering
In your braids and heavy pages, we were folded
Kiss the cold and dirty ground

[Chorus]
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that looking back
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that looking back
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that

[Verse 3]
Seasons wake with sleeping birds now flying south
Covered mouth, we watch in awe
Fallen pines to shape the skyline, take me there
Beneath the barren colored moon
(Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that looking back
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that)
[Bridge]
Greeting all the masses
From their teeming shores
She was born with open hands
(Her color, color, color is coming back
Color, color, color)

[Outro]
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that looking back
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that looking back
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that looking back
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that looking back
Quit all that, quit all that, quit all that looking back
Mmmm, mmmm
