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 now
Out on an open road
Racin' to beat the night
No matter where I'm goin'
I guess I'll get all right
So why don't I understand
What's trippin' me up?
It oughta be a simple thing
I can't hold on
And I can't return
It's time to let go
Start to live and learn
I took a one-way flight
Too high to see the ground
Now I know how long it takes
A heart to come down
Alone on the highway now
I'm takin' it mile by mile
I'd rather be a lonely man
Than an imprisoned child
So why do I feel the strain
That keeps trippin' me up
Will it ever be a simple thing
I can't hold on
And I can't return
Rivers will run
And bridges will burn
I can't say just how
But there's no lookin' back now
When everything fades away
And there's nothing left
Then you got to keep rememberin'
I can't slow down
And I can't return
It's time to let go
Start to live and learn
So why don't I understand
What's trippin' me up?
Well, it oughta be a simple thing
I can't hold on
And I can't return
Rivers will run
And bridges will burn
I can't say just how
But there's no lookin' back now
I won't slow down
And I can't return
As night turns to dawn
The pages will burn
I can't say just how
But there's no lookin' back now
I can't hold on
And I can't return
It's time to let go
Start to live and learn
My wheels are the only sound
Runnin' at the speed of light
I can't slow down now
Out on an open road
Racin' to beat the night
No matter where I'm goin'
I guess I'll get all right
So why don't I understand
What's trippin' me up?
It oughta be a simple thing
I can't hold on
And I can't return
It's time to let go
Start to live and learn
I took a one-way flight
Too high to see the ground
Now I know how long it takes
A heart to come down
Alone on the highway now
I'm takin' it mile by mile
I'd rather be a lonely man
Than an imprisoned child
So why do I feel the strain
That keeps trippin' me up
Will it ever be a simple thing
I can't hold on
And I can't return
Rivers will run
And bridges will burn
I can't say just how
But there's no lookin' back now
When everything fades away
And there's nothing left
Then you got to keep rememberin'
I can't slow down
And I can't return
It's time to let go
Start to live and learn
So why don't I understand
What's trippin' me up?
Well, it oughta be a simple thing
I can't hold on
And I can't return
Rivers will run
And bridges will burn
I can't say just how
But there's no lookin' back now
I won't slow down
And I can't return
As night turns to dawn
The pages will burn
I can't say just how
But there's no lookin' back now
I can't hold on
And I can't return
It's time to let go
Start to live and learn
