Don't Look Back Lyrics

There's a river outside this cabin

Rolling through the woods

Figured heading north for mountain air might do some good

And it did 'cause there's a clarity

I've never had before

I can see the road in front of me

I don't look back no more

Let me be just like that river

Flowing right outside my door

And the sunrise will deliver me

I don't look back no more

The past don't owe me nothin'

And regrets just weigh a ton

What's the use in stressin' over somethin' said and done?

I'm swinging in the moment

And I'll play it where it lands

The future's still unwritten

But the present's in my hands

Not too much left here now to bank on

Still one thing I know for sure

Sister all has been forgiven

I don't look back no more

Sunrise deliver me

I'm a river to the sea

I'm a phoenix eagle flying

I'm a newborn baby crying

I'm the dawn of a new day rising

Over the line of a blue horizon

I'm the light from a distant sun

I'm a journey just begun

On my way and feeling fine

All I'm taking is what's mine

I'm gonna be just like that river

Streaming onward evermore

And each sunrise will deliver me

No I ain't looking back no more

Ain't gonna be like my friend Edith

Don't you look back

When she left Sodom and Gomorrah

Don't you look back

Wasn't nobody's fault

Woman just turned to salt

I ain't looking back no more

Sunrise deliver me

I'm a river to the sea

I'm a phoenix eagle flying

I'm a newborn baby crying

I'm the dawn of a new day rising

Over the line of a blue horizon

I'm the light from a distant sun

I'm a journey just begun

On my way and feeling fine

All I'm taking is what's mine
