Where are they now, the bold plans of youth?
The hopes and the dreams have faded away
Reality bites the world owes no-one
You take what you can from each passing day

Don't look back, don't look back - live now

The radio plays the hits you once knew
The day disappears, you drift back in time
Nostalgia's a drug, it colours the past
The bad times forgot, the good times so fine

Don't look back, don't look back - live now

You're trapped by your past held fast in its grip
Memories shut out the things you should say
What might have once been can be realised
So open your eyes and let in today

Don't look back, don't look back - live now
