Never Looking Back

She can see the stars from where she stands And all she longs for is you hold her hand She ties her shoes, past drips away She's on her way... I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again She walks with the moon, sleeps with the sun Never had a father, kind of had a mom She stuck the needle into her arm, stared in the mirror, she wanted to run She said, "If I could just have another life," Let me tell you about her only vice Maybe mother would think twice A lack of love ain't nothing nice This home, this earth This skin, this worth This frown, this birth She wants to laugh but she just hurts And as the past walks in to influence this future She makes amends, to get a fair chance she might contend This original sin as breath begins She can see the stars from where she stands And all she longs for is you hold her hand She ties her shoes, past drips away She's on her way... I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again She walks with the moon, sleeps with the sun Never had a father, always was the mom She pulled the needle out of her arm, stared in the mirror, she wanted to run She said, "If I could just have another life," Let me tell you about her only vice Maybe mother would think twice A lack of love ain't nothing nice Same home, same earth Same skin, same worth Same frown, same birth She wants to laugh but she just hurts And as the past walks in to influence this future She makes amends, to get a fair chance she must not pretend This original sin for a second chance She can see the stars from where she stands And all she longs for is you hold her hand She ties her shoes, past drips away She's on her way... I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again I ain't looking back again, I ain't ever looking back again
