Chris De Burgh - Don't Look Back lyrics

Oh, there is a place where the wild men go

When it's late at night and on the radio

They're telling everybody, stay at home

It's no time for you to be alone

It is a place on the edge of town

Just shining in a hell-fire light (they're waiting)

And if you're there, keep going on

They're waiting deep inside, I'm telling you

Don't look back, women in the red and black

Don't look back, they're going to take your heart away

I'm telling you don't look back, women in the red and black

Don't look back, they're going to steal your heart away

I should have known better

Jimmy Pellin was a friend of mine

But he went out there one too many times

I saw him running down the railroad track

And I tell you boys he ain't coming back

The early morning is their favourite time

To find somebody out on their own (they're waiting)

They're waving arms and flashing lights

Standing out on the road, I'm telling you

Don't look back, women in the red and black

Don't look back, they're going to take your heart away

I should have known better, I should have known better

So if you're going to the edge of town

Don't lose in a hell-fire light (they're waiting)

And if you're passing, keep going on

They're waiting there tonight, I'm begging you

Don't look back, don't look back

I beg you don't look back

Women in the red and black

Don't look back, they're going to steal your heart away

I should have known better (don't look back)

I should have known better (don't look back)

I should have known better (don't look back)

I should have known better (don't look back)

I should have known better
