Michael McDonald - No Lookin' Back lyrics

(Michael McDonald/Kenny Loggins & Ed Sanford)

I'm fading out of sight

My wheels are the only sound

Runnin' at the speed of sight

I can't slow down

Out on the open road

Racing to beat the night

No matter where I go

Guess I'll get there all right

So why don't I understand

What's trippin' me up

It used to be a simple thing

[Chorus:]

I can't hold on, I can't return

Time to let go, start to live and learn

I took the one way flight

Too high to see the ground

Now I know how long it takes

A heart to come down

Why don't I understand what's trippin' me up

It ought to be a simple thing

[Chorus]

I can't hold on, I can't return

Rivers will run, bridges will burn

I'm not sure just how

But there's no lookin' back now
