Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm fadin' out of sight
My wheels are the only sound
Runnin' at the speed of light
I can't slow down, now
[Verse 2]
Out on the open road
Racin' to beat the night
No matter where I'm goin'
I guess I'll get there alright
[Verse 3]
So why don't I understand
What's trippin' me up?
It used to be a simple thing
[Verse 4]
I can't hold on
And I can't return
Time to let go
Start to live and learn
[Verse 5]
I took a one-way flight
Too high to see the ground
Now I know how long it takes
A heart to come down
[Verse 6]
So why don't I understand
What's trippin' me up?
Oh, it oughta be a simple thing
[Verse 7]
I can't hold on
And I can't return
Rivers will run
And bridges will burn
I'm not sure just how
But there's no lookin' back, now
[Verse 8]
I can't hold on
And I can't return
Rivers will run
And bridges will burn
I'm not sure just how
But there's no lookin' back, now
[Verse 9]
I can't hold on
And I can't return
Rivers will run
Bridges will burn
I'm not sure just how
But there's no lookin' back, now
[Verse 10]
No lookin' back, now
No lookin' back, now
No lookin' back, now
No lookin' back, now
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
There's no lookin' back, now
Oh, oh
