In reply to the discussion: What are your Favorite songs of Regret, Desire to Change things that can't be Changed? [View all]FrankfurtCat
(1,215 posts)36. Same here...this song was playing at my daughter's Christmas dinner/party.
They were streaming music from the 70's, 80's, 90's and more recent. It was great, because the music represented the three generations there. I remember thinking how it was so nice to hear a song like this from the 70's.
Lots of good Boston songs, including this great one:
Don't Look Back
Boston Don't Look Back Lyrics
Don't look back
A new day is breakin'
It's been too long since I felt this way
I don't mind where I get taken
The road is callin'
Today is the day
I can see
It took so long to realize
I'm much too strong
Not to compromise
Now I see what I am is holding me down
I'll turn it around
I finally see the dawn arrivin'
I see beyond the road I'm drivin'
Far away and left behind
It's a new horizon and I'm awakin' now
Oh I see myself in a brand new way
The sun is shinin'
The clouds are breakin'
Cause I can't lose now, there's no game to play
I can tell
There's no more time left to criticize
I've seen what I could not recognize
Everything in my life was leading me on
But I can be strong
I finally see the dawn arrivin'
I see beyond the road I'm drivin'
Far away and left behind
Songwriters: T. SCHOLZ
