You Can't Look Back

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I was living day to day

As the meetings they would suggest

Sitting pretty having one foot out that door

No, I didn't know how to act

Started running and I didn't look back

Still feel the same way

Still don't know where I'm going

Oh, then you let me in

I don't know how you did it other than you did

Cut your wrist and said come get you some

It only works if you don't look down

Bought the ticket, now you're on the track

You can keep it but you can't look back

You can keep it but you can't look back

You can keep it but you can't look back

You can keep it but you can't look back

I didn't know what I was looking for

And come to think I wasn't looking at all

I'm not the same man, not since you came in

I'm going to get you if it takes me all night long

I'm going to get you if it takes me all night long

I'm going to get you if it takes me all night long

I'm going to get you if it takes me all night long

I'm not the same man, not since you came in

I'm going to get you if it take me all night

I'm going to get you if it takes me all night long

I was nearly four states away

Mamma calling from the other end

Someday a woman's gonna need you most the time

Lord, I didn't know how to act

I started running and I didn't look back

Still feel the same way

Still don't know where I'm going

But now I'm in it until the bitter end

You're gonna do me then you do me like that

Cut your wrist and said come get you some

It only works if you don't look down

Bought the ticket, now you're on the track

You can keep it but you can't look back

You can keep it but you can't look back

You can keep it but you can't look back

You can keep it but you can't look back

I didn't know what I was looking for (can't look back)

And come to think I wasn't looking at all (can't look back)

I'm not the same man, not since you came in

I'm going to get you if it takes me all night long

I'm going to get you if it takes me all night long

I'm going to get you if it takes me all night

I'm going to get you if it takes me all night long

I'm going to get you if it takes me all night long

Started runnin' in

You cut your wrist

You let me in

Don't know how you did it other than you did

I was there beside myself in my own skin

Unfamiliar, I tried it on and liked the fit

I don't know how you did it other than you did

I'm going to get you if it takes me all night long

I don't know how you did it other than you did

I was there beside myself in my own skin

Unfamiliar, I tried it on and liked the fit

I don't know how you did it other than you did

Don't know how you did it other than you did

I was there beside myself in my own skin

Unfamiliar, I tried it on and liked the fit

I don't know how you did it other than you did

Don't know how you did it other than you did
