Donna Lewis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't look back now don't look back over years gone by
They're gone and now its time to live
Don't look back now you have to let your childhood go
And then you'll find a peace within'
And you will free your mind to sleep
And you will free yourself to weep
And you will free your mind to sleep
And you will free yourself to weep
Don't be afraid you have so many choices
Hold your head up high and say goodbye




No second thoughts you have a future waiting
Take my hand and I will show the way
