Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Don't look back

Ooh a new day is breaking

It's been too long since I felt this way

I don't mind

Ooh where I get taken

The road is calling

Today is the day

[PreChorus]

And I can see it took so long just to realize

I'm much too strong now to compromise

Now I see what I am is holding me down

I'll turn it around

Oh yes, I will

[Chorus]

I finally see the dawn arriving

I see beyond the road I'm driving

[Verse 2]

It's a bright horizon

Ooh and I'm awaking now

Oh I see myself in a brand new way

The sun is shining

Ooh the clouds are breaking

'Cause I can't lose now

There's no game to play

[PreChorus]

I can tell there's no more time left to criticize

I've seen what I could not recognize

Everything in my life was leading me on

But I can be strong

Oh yes, I can

[Chorus]

I finally see the dawn arriving

I see beyond the road I'm driving

Ooh far away and left behind, left behind

[Bridge]

Oh the sun is shining

And I'm on that road

[Verse 3]

Don't look back

Ooh a new day is breaking, ah-ah-ah

Oh it's been so long since I felt this way

I don't mind

Ooh where I get taken

The road is calling

Today is the day

[PreChorus]

I can see it took so long just to realize

I'm much too strong now to compromise

Now I see what I am is holding me down

I'll turn it around

Oh yes, I will

[Chorus]

I finally see the dawn arriving

I see beyond the road I'm driving

Oh far away and left behind

[Outro]

Don't look back

Don't look back

Don't look back

Don't look back
