Don't Look Back
Walkin' through a lonesome town
Rain came a fallin' down
And it drove me in here
Feelin' a little used
Broken and bruised
Like I belong here
But wandrin' through the second-hand clothes
And tarnished treasures no one loves anymore
I found a quarter's worth of wisdom
In this local bargain store and it said
Don't look back
Don't look back
The road you're travelin' is a one-way track
Gotta look to the future
Cuz you can't change the past
Make the most of what you've livin' and
Don't look back
Just a greeting card in a purple frame
Swore it had my name
Written on the inside
I whispered a tearful prayer
Grateful God had met me there
To comfort and remind
That though we long to rewrite history
We only have power in the present tense
Better learn from our mistakes
Not take them up around the bend and he said
Don't look back
Don't look back
The road you're travelin' is a one-way track
Gotta look to the future
Cuz you can't change the past
Make the most of what you've livin' and
Don't look back
Gonna hang that picture by my front door
And every mornin' just before I leave
It'll say there's a new day
Waitin' out there for me so
Don't look back
Don't look back
The road you're travelin' is a one-way track
Gotta look to the future
Cuz you can't change the past
Make the most of what you're livin' and
Don't look back
Don't look back
Rain came a fallin' down
And it drove me in here
Feelin' a little used
Broken and bruised
Like I belong here
But wandrin' through the second-hand clothes
And tarnished treasures no one loves anymore
I found a quarter's worth of wisdom
In this local bargain store and it said
Don't look back
Don't look back
The road you're travelin' is a one-way track
Gotta look to the future
Cuz you can't change the past
Make the most of what you've livin' and
Don't look back
Just a greeting card in a purple frame
Swore it had my name
Written on the inside
I whispered a tearful prayer
Grateful God had met me there
To comfort and remind
That though we long to rewrite history
We only have power in the present tense
Better learn from our mistakes
Not take them up around the bend and he said
Don't look back
Don't look back
The road you're travelin' is a one-way track
Gotta look to the future
Cuz you can't change the past
Make the most of what you've livin' and
Don't look back
Gonna hang that picture by my front door
And every mornin' just before I leave
It'll say there's a new day
Waitin' out there for me so
Don't look back
Don't look back
The road you're travelin' is a one-way track
Gotta look to the future
Cuz you can't change the past
Make the most of what you're livin' and
Don't look back
Don't look back
