Don't Look Back - Brett Harris

I keep hearing melodies

And everything you say to me

But I’m proceeding carefully

Because I don’t want my poor heart

To be broken again

Like an old piece of glass

On the streets that you walk past

On the way to your new lover

I keep seeing starry skies

Reflecting in your darling eyes

But I’m too old and I’m too wise

I see right through your thin disguise

To you, it’s just a game

You don’t even know my name

But it’s better off that way

Cause you don’t blow my cover

We could’ve shared

Something to last all time

Now we may not have anymore

So baby just once

Grant me this last request

Don’t look back when you go

Everything was looking down

When I stumbled into this town

But you have turned my life around

You set my feet on solid ground

And even when I say

That I wish that I could stay

I’d trade all my yesterday’s

For the chance of wanting love

Maybe someday down the line

And in another place and time

I could be yours, you could be mine

Tell me, wouldn’t that be fine?

But we both know what’s best

If we leave

Cause if we put it to the test

It would only bring us sorrow

We could’ve shared

Something to last all time

Now we may not have anymore

So baby, just once

Grant me this last request

Don’t look back when you go

We could’ve shared

Something to last all time

Now we may not have anymore

So baby, just once

Grant me this last request

Don’t look back when you go
