Michael McDonald
No Lookin’ Back
[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
So why don't I understand
What's trippin' me up
It used to be a simple thing

[Chorus]
I can't hold on, and I can't return
Time to let go, start to live and learn

[Verse 2]
I took the one way flight
Too high to see the ground
Now I know how long it takes
A heart to come down

[Pre-Chorus]
So why don't I understand what's trippin' me up
I know it oughta be a simple thing
[Chorus]
I can't hold on, and I can't return
Rivers will run, and bridges will burn
I'm not sure just how (I'm not sure just how)
But there's no lookin' back now

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I can't hold on, I can't return
Rivers will run, bridges will burn
I'm not sure just how (I'm not sure just how)
But there's no lookin' back now
I can't hold on (I can't hold on), I can't return
Rivers will run (Rivers will run), bridges will burn
I'm not sure just how
But there's no lookin' back now

[Outro]
No lookin' back now
No lookin' back now
No lookin' back now
No lookin' back now
Oh-oh
Oh-oh, no lookin' back now, oh-oh
