Don'T Look Back

The Candle of Hope flickered But now it’s gone Don’t look back, don’t look back Light another Candle Hope will linger on You just got to keep going on Don’t look back, don’t look back You burnt your soul And escaped hell There’s no reason now For there to dwell Don’t look back Just don’t look back Rest your heart in a little shade For a moment pause But you don’t need to stop Lie your aching bones upon the glade Tell your broken heart You are a star Rise from here, pick up your light Pain is the oil that makes it glow bright Get back on the Road, join the Race Take a little help from the Amazing Grace.
