Tom Cochrane - Can't Turn Back lyrics

Knew he was a misfit since the age of seventeen He had to do it his way they said, He should be quarantined Looking to the East, and looking to the West Looking for the courage, To see which way was the best. Cause you can't turn back (can't turn back) - oh, no Look out on his right, he would look out on his left He would look out in the distance, where he could see the wilderness When the thunderhead approached, he would pull off to the side And when the sun would break through, he would get back out and ride Cause you can't turn back (can't turn back) - oh, no No, you can't turn back (can't turn back) - oh, no You can try to see the forest for the trees, The wind storm for the breeze No one ever said that it would be that easy You make your way through the debris, stand up for your beliefs Even though the world might say you're crazy Always had the feeling he would get out alive But the more that he sees of it, then the less he fantasized Though he lost a bit of freedom, he had traded it for love You know he'd fight for it if that push came to shove Cause you can't turn back (can't turn back) - oh, no No, you can't turn back (can't turn back) - oh, no No, you can't turn back (can't turn back) - oh, no... Stand back! No, you can't turn back (can't turn back) - oh, no No, you can't turn back (can't turn back) - oh, no No, you can't turn back (can't turn back) - oh, no No, you can't turn back (can't turn back) Stand up (can't turn back) Stand up, stand up (can't turn back) Oh, no...
