I Can't Look Back

"I Can't Look Back"

empty glass of happiness in my hand
my favorite book of dreams just hit the fan
but I was talking big
I knew I had it all
it took just one card for the house to fall

I can't look back
I can't look back, no, no
this is no dream anymore
got to face the facts
my heart may linger
but my bags are packed
I can't look back, I can't look back

if I could only see the lesson learned
I saw the fire, felt the burn
but I couldn't stay away, his hands fit me like a glove
somewhere in that passion there might have been love
-chorus-

memories follow like a ghost
till I'm back at the party entertaining hopes
then everything fades back into smoke
lifting the cloud of illusion
there's just one conclusion
-chorus-
