The Kinks - No More Looking Back lyrics
Your rating:
Walking along a crowded streetI see thousands of faces before me.Then I see a face that I used to knowLong ago in my life story.It starts me thinking about the things you saidFor your image is still inside me.The past is gone but in my headYou’re still walking along beside me.Is it something playing tricks with my eyesOr just an illusion deceiving me,Or is it someone in a disguiseOr visions of things that used to be? But lately I’ve been going toAll the places that we once knew,And just when I think that I am free of youI keep seeing the things that remind me of you,And just when I think you’re out of my headI hear a song that you sang or see a book that you read.Then you’re in every bar, you’re in every cafŽ,You’re driving every car, I see you everyday,But you’re not really there ’cos you belong to yesterday.No more looking back,No more living in the past,Yesterday’s gone and that’s a fact,Now there’s no more looking back.Got to be hard,Yeah, look straight ahead.That s the only way it’s going to be,Yesterday’s gone and that’s a fact,Now there’s no more looking back,Perhaps someday I’ll stop needing you,Then maybe one day I’ll be free of you.But lately I’ve been going toAll the places that remind me of you.And just when I think you’re out of my headI hear a record you played or see a book that you read.Then you’re in every bar, you’re in every cafŽ,You’re driving every car, I see you everydayBut you’re not really there ’cos you belong to yesterday.No more looking back,No more living in the past.Yesterday’s gone, that’s a fact,Now there’s no more looking back.No more looking back.No more living in the past.Yesterday’s gone, that’s a fact.Now there’s no more looking back.
