Can't Look Back

This pretty smile might suggest that I'm alright but I confess
You're putting my heart to the test and baby I'm a mess
The load is lying on my spine, I tell them all that I'm just fine
But I can't get you off my mind after all this time

And I can't look back on the road that I've traveled
Chose my path and the story unraveled
I wouldn't change a thing, but I still feel it sting

These thoughts are turning around, turning around
And running right back to you
My heart is calling you out from the inside out
Knowing I must hide the truth
And what a shame, the one that got away
Always seems to be the one who never knew
But these words will never find their way to you

The silence kills me but I know I had my shot and let it go
And now the feelings live aglow, they haunt me like a ghost
He loves me more than words can say, but my heart pulls the other way
I see the soul that I could save and you're a tidal wave

And I can't look back on the road that I've traveled
Chose my path and the story unraveled
I wouldn't change a thing, but I still feel it sting

These thoughts are turning around, turning around
And running right back to you
My heart is calling you out from the inside out
Knowing I must hide the truth
And what a shame, the one that got away
Always seems to be the one who never knew
But these words will never find their way to you

And I can't look back on the road that I've traveled
Chose my path and the story unraveled
I run and run but it's no use 'cause I can't run away from you

And what a shame, the things we hide away
Always find the heart just a little too late

These thoughts are turning around, turning around
And running right back to you
My heart is calling you out from the inside out
Knowing I must hide the truth
And what a shame, the one that got away
Always seems to be the one who never knew
But these words will never find their way to you

My heart is calling you out
And what a shame, the one that got away
Always seems to be the one who never knew
But these words will never find their way to you
Find their way to you
