Michael McDonald: No lookin' back [lyrics]

Michael McDonald: No lookin' back [lyrics]

Michael McDonald

No lookin' back

I'm fading out of sight

My wheels are the only sound

Runnin' at the speed of light

I can't slow down

Out on the open road

Racing to beat the night

No matter where I go

Guess I'll get there all right

So why don't I understand

What's trippin' me up

It used to be a simple thing

I can't hold on

I can't return

Time to let go

Start to live and learn

I took the one way flight

Too high to see the ground

Now I know how long it takes

A heart to come down

Why don't I understand 

What's trippin' me up

Oh, it ought to be a simple thing

CHORUS

I can't hold on

I can't return

Rivers will run

Bridges will burn

I'm not sure just how

But there's no lookin' back now

CHORUS

CHORUS

No lookin' back now

No lookin' back now

No lookin' back now
