Boston - Don't Look Back Album lyrics

(Scholz) Don't look back, ooh a new day is breakin' It's been too long since I felt this way I don't mind ooh where I get taken The road is callin', today is the day I can see, it took so long just to realize I'm much too strong not to compromise Now I see what I am is holding me down I'll turn it around, oh yes I will I finally see the dawn arrivin' I see beyond the road I'm drivin' It's a bright horizon and I'm awakin' now Oh I see myself in a brand new way The sun is shinin' ooh the clouds are breakin' 'Cause I can't lose now, there's no game to play I can tell there's no more time left to criticize I've seen what I could not recognize Everything in my life was leading me on But I can be strong, oh yes I can I finally see the dawn arrivin' I see beyond the road I'm drivin' Far away and left behind, left behind Oh the sun is shinin' And I'm on my road Don't look back, ooh a new day is breakin' It's been so long since I felt this way I don't mind ooh where I get taken The road is callin', today is the day I can see, it took so long just to realize I'm much too strong not to compromise Now I see what I am is holding me down I'll turn it around, oh yes I will I finally see the dawn arriving I see beyond the road I'm driving Far away and left behind Don't look back Don't look back Don't look back Don't look back (Scholz) [Instrumental] (Scholz) Hey I've got no place to be And no one I'd rather see I won't mind if you can find The time to stay with me Oh I've got no time for wastin' Gotta live a life when I can I won't hide if you decide To let me be your man When I get close to you, not much to say I get that same old feeling I had in my younger days And I can show you the way It's just a game we play It's easy, takin' it day by day Hey You know I would concede And I think we both agree You and I can testify That love is what we need Just take a look around you, livin' for the future is blind I believe what we can achieve will soon be left behind The things I try to say are so hard to find If you doubt what your love is about it can ease you mind And I can show you the way It's just a game we play It's easy, takin' it day by day Hey I've got no place to be And no one I'd rather see I won't mind if you find That you're in love with me Well we got no time to worry Gotta live a life when I can I won't hide if you decide To let me be your man And I can show you the way It's just a game we play It's easy, takin' it day by day (Scholz) If I said what's on my mind You'd turn and walk away Disappearing way back in your dreams It's so hard to be unkind So easy just to say That everything is just the way it seems You look up at me And somewhere in your mind you see A man I'll never be If only I could find a way I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am And it gets harder every day for me To hide behind this dream you see A man I'll never be I can't get any stronger I can't climb any higher You'll never know just how hard I've tried Cry a little longer And hold a little tighter Emotions can't be satisfied You look up at me And somewhere in your mind you see A man I'll never be If only I could find a way I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am And it gets harder every day for me To hide behind this dream you see A man I'll never be (Scholz) Well come on All you people The time has come to get together You gotta have a little rock 'n' roll music To get you through the stormy weather And do whatever you feel When you let go Nothin's gonna help you more than rock 'n' roll So come on, put you hands together You know it's now or never Take a chance on rock 'n' roll Ooo are you feelin' satisfied Come on let us give your mind a ride Ooo are you ready tonight Come on let us give your mind a ride You can do what you like Come on let us give your mind a ride Oh that funky feelin' Is what you need to get you through You oughta know I'll tell you somethin' Don't let your troubles get to you 'Cause win or lose it's alright Well take control And nothin's gonna help you more than rock 'n' roll So come on Put you hands together You know it's now or never Take a chance on rock 'n' roll Ooo are you feelin' satisfied Come on let us give your mind a ride Ooo are you ready tonight Come on let us give your mind a ride You can do what you like Come on let us give your mind a ride (Scholz, Delp) Well you know I don't get off on workin' day after day I wanna have some fun while I'm here I play the game when it's goin' my way And there's nothin' like a party when it's kickin' into gear I'm gettin' ready for a party tonight Yes I'm gettin' ready to cruise And if you've got somethin' for me I've got somethin' for you Baby It's a party and nobody cares What we're doin' there Baby, it's a party as long as you're there It's a party, party, party! I can't believe it when some people say That it's a sin that way we live to die You know, there's never been a more natural thing Yea there's a brand new story, but it's the same old lie So come on Get ready for the time of your life 'Cause I'm gettin' right in the groove And if you've got somethin' for me I've got somethin' for you Baby It's a party and nobody cares What we're doin' there Baby, it's a party as long as you're there It's a party, party, party! Yea yea yea yea get down and party if you need a cue You're sure to find one in the crowd Just meet some friends and have a toke or two In a place where they can never play the music too loud Get ready for a party tonight 'Cause I'm gettin' right in the groove And if you've got somethin' for me I've got somethin' for you Baby It's a party and nobody cares What we're doin' there Baby, it's a party as long as you're there It's a party, party, party! You know a man doesn't live on bread alone He's got to have some lovin' each and every night And a woman's got to have it if the truth be known Let's get together honey, it's alright (Delp) Just let me hear it from your lips It's the last thing that I'll ask you to say Don't wanna hear it from strangers If it's over let me have it straight I've been used But I'm takin' it like a man I'm confused But I'm doin' the best that I can I've been tossed around plenty before I've had this heart of mine broken and more I can't find a reason for sure But I've gotten used to bad news (can't find me a reason for sure) Don't tell me why Yes it's over I can see the end But please don't lie If you're leavin' me like a friend I've been tossed around plenty of times And I've read between all the lines You're just another in the grand design And I've gotten used to bad news I know what you're sayin' is bad It's not what I wanted but I'm ready for that I'm ready for that, yea I've been used But I'm takin' it like a man I'm confused But I'm doin' the best that I can I've been tossed around plenty before I've had this heart of mine broken and more I can't find a reason for sure But I've gotten used to bad news (can't find me a reason for sure) (Scholz) Now if you're thinkin' 'bout a love that left you Thinkin' you should hide away Girl I think it's wrong You just try to be strong now babe Listen to what I've got to say I know the feelin' that you feel today But don't be afraid of love Tell you how I feel about you Tell you what you want to hear Tell you that it's true But it's all up to you now babe Don't let your love disappear Can't believe that I'll be stayin' here But don't be afraid of love Baby don't you know good love is hard to find Don't you think I know what's goin' through your mind One man left you cryin' so you shut the door Just let me inside that's what my love is for Tell you how I feel about you Tell you what you want to hear Tell you that it's true But it's all up to you now babe Don't let your love disappear Can't believe that I'll be stayin' here But don't be afraid of love
