Don't Look Back - Nat King Cole
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
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 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 its 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
Keep your vision
Straight ahead
You can't lose with the stuff you use
We've come too far just to turn around
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
Don't look back no
Cause we've come much too far
Just to turn around
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
It's not the end of the world my friend
Just tip your hat
Start again keep on stepping yawl
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' yawl
Get get get up on the good foot
