I'm fading out of sight My wheels are the only sound Runnin' at the speed of sight I can't slow down Out on the open road Racing to beat the night No matter where I go Guess I'll get there all right So why don't I understand What's trippin' me up It used to be a simple thing [Chorus:] I can't hold on, I can't return Time to let go, start to live and learn I took the one way flight Too high to see the ground Now I know how long it takes A heart to come down Why don't I understand what's trippin' me up It ought to be a simple thing [Chorus] I can't hold on, I can't return Rivers will run, bridges will burn I'm not sure just how But there's no lookin' back now
