Can’t Look Back lyrics:
I was on a train out of New Mexico
Looking for a flame for my heart of coal
Sold my Nikon lenses to get out of town
Don’t know how deep you’re in until you’re trying to get out
She was floating like a vision down through the isle
Mississippi queen with a Tennessee smile
The smell of cheap coffee and Jamaician rum
We watched the desert fade in the Sante Fe sun
I said I’m not feeling right
She said boy you’ll be just fine
Go ahead and rest your eyes
Cause you can’t look back (can’t look back)
You can’t look back (can’t look back)
There ain’t no future in the past
And you can’t look back (can’t look back)
With characters galore in the Sayulita sun
Pineapple pastor with the senoritas
All the disenfranchised kids in the room
We were baptized in the Pacific moon
Someone put a cactus up to my tongue
You can feel alive and try calling it love
A Boy with a smile handed me his keys
Said ‘go ahead and try’
