Everyday the population is growing and to find some peace of mind is something rare

Dont you get discouraged keep on going and dont you mind the way that the people turn and stare

Now how long can you keep on feeling guilty and tell me why should you feel bad about feeling good

Dont you know that the world is cold and filthy, aw yes it is, but if youre a special child

They know sometimes youll be misunderstood, (you can never look back)

Yesterday is dead and gone, (dont you look back) your tomorrow is here today

Keep on fighting, a quitter never wins, hold your breath stick out your chin

Count to ten start again, everybody wants to be somebody

But they cant seem to see the forest for the trees, we just cant let our past

Hold back our future, oh, no, no, when its all over but the shouting

Nothing is left but memories, looks like you could use a little bit of happiness

Now I know that its really hard to find, but you owe it to yourself to have the very best

And only a fool will try to catch up to what he has left behind, (you can never look back)

No, no, cause yesterday is dead and gone, (dont you look back) your tomorrow is here today

And when youre crying, you need someone to hold on to

Its not the end of the world my friend, tip your hat, start again

And keep a positive direction, oh, keep your vision straight ahead

You cant lose with the stuff you use, weve come too far just to turn around, oh, oh,

Dont you look back, yesterday is dead and gone (dont you look back)

Your tomorrow is on the way and if youre fighting, people, a quitter never wins

Hold your breath stick out your chin, count to ten, start again, dont you look back

No, no, uh, oh, (dont look back) no cause weve come much too far

Just to turn around, uh, oh, oh, (repeat dont you look back) dont you look back now

Yesterday is dead and gone, dont you look back, your tomorrow is here today

And when youre crying, cause all your friends have forsaken you

Its not the end of the world my friend, just tip your hat start again

Keep on steppin yaul, dont look back, dont turn your head around

Get up, get out on the good foot, keep on fightin, yeah, hold your breath

Stick out your chin, count to ten and start again dont try it

You got to keep on movin yaul, get, get, get up on the good foot
