Don't Look Back
Leaves rustle on the sidewalk to my right
They blow away as I step to the side
I sink onto the freezing ground in fright
Nothing in my sight will help me to hide
Nothing that I can do to save my pride
My soul is shredded from so much despair
My face is a mess from the tears I've cried
After all this time, it's too much to bear
I never thought that you would be the one
The one who would inspire so much mistrust
I should not be the one who has to run
It is not my fault our love turned to dust
You have always taken my breath away
But this isn't a game I'm willing to play
They blow away as I step to the side
I sink onto the freezing ground in fright
Nothing in my sight will help me to hide
Nothing that I can do to save my pride
My soul is shredded from so much despair
My face is a mess from the tears I've cried
After all this time, it's too much to bear
I never thought that you would be the one
The one who would inspire so much mistrust
I should not be the one who has to run
It is not my fault our love turned to dust
You have always taken my breath away
But this isn't a game I'm willing to play
