Status Quo - Backing Off Lyrics

I got the message
I’m backing off
I got the message
So now i know

So now I know it
I’m checking out
So now I know it’s
The way it goes

Whenever I come near
It’s oh so crystal clear

I’m backing off
I’m checking out
I’m backing off

I got the picture
I gotta go
I got the picture
It hurts me so

I gotta take it
I’m backing off
So can I make it
I gotta know

You whispered in my ear
Why don’t you disappear

I’m backing off
I’m checking out
I’m backing off
I gotta go

I got the message
I’m backing off
I got the message
So now I know

So now I know it
I’m backing off
So now I know it’s
The way it goes

Whenever I come near
It’s oh so crystal clear

You whispered in my ear
Why don’t you disappear

I’m backing off
I’m checking out
I’m backing off
I gotta go
I gotta go
I gotta go
