"Don't Look Back" by Natalie Cole

Written by cole-yancy-allen

Everyday the population is growing and to find some peace of
mind is something rare

Don't you get discouraged keep on going and don't you mind
the way that the people turn and stare

Now how long can you keep on feeling guilty and tell me why
should you feel bad about feeling good

Don't you know that the world is cold and filthy, aw yes it
is, but if you're a special child

They know sometimes you'll be misunderstood, (you can never
look back)

Yesterday is dead and gone, (don't you look back) your
tomorrow is here today

Keep on fighting, a quitter never wins, hold your breath
stick out your chin

Count to ten start again, everybody wants to be somebody

But they can't seem to see the forest for the trees, we just
can't let our past

Hold back our future, oh, no, no, when it's all over but the
shouting

Nothing is left but memories, looks like you could use a
little bit of	happiness

Now I know that it's really hard to find, but you owe it to
yourself to have the very best

And only a fool will try to catch up to what he has left
behind, (you can never look back)

No, no, 'cause yesterday is dead and gone, (don't you look
back) your tomorrow is here today

And when you're crying, you need someone to hold on to

It's not the end of the world my friend, tip your hat, start
again

And keep a positive direction, oh, keep your vision straight
ahead

You can't lose with the stuff you use, we've come too far
just to turn around, oh, oh,

Don't you look back, yesterday is dead and gone (don't you
look back)

Your tomorrow is on the way and if you're fighting, people,
a quitter never wins

Hold your breath stick out your chin, count to ten, start
again, don't you look back

No, no, uh, oh, (don't look back) no 'cause we've come much
too far

Just to turn around, uh, oh, oh, (repeat don't you look
back) don't you look back now

Yesterday is dead and gone, don't you look back, your
tomorrow is here today

And when you're crying, 'cause all your friends have
forsaken you

Its not the end of the world my friend, just tip your hat
start again

Keep on steppin' yaul, don't look back, don't turn your head
around

Get up, get out on the good foot, keep on fightin,' yeah,
hold your breath

Stick out your chin, count to ten and start again don't try
it

You got to keep on movin' yaul, get, get, get up on the good
foot
