NO LOOKIN' BACK

I'm fading out a' sight My wheels are the only sound Runnin' at the speed a' light 'N 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 there alright So why don't I understand What's trippin' me up? It oughta be a simple thing I can't hold on 'N I can't return It's time to let go 'N 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 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 'N 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 remembering I can't hold on 'N I can't return It's time to let go 'N start to live and learn 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 'N bridges will burn I can't say just how I won't slow down 'N I can't return As night turns to dawn The pages will burn I'm not sure just how But there's no lookin' back now I can't hold on 'N I can't return It's time to let go 'N start to live and learn
