I Won’t Be Looking Back

[Verse 1] Felt myself in a strange part of town Heavy heart and the rain coming down Empty café and nobody around And I saw you looking back All I ask for was a table for one Saw my face and you told me there were none So I walked away but I didn't run And I won't be looking back There's a welcoming sign at the door But your words were so hard to ignore Yes, these black girls had that welcome before You won't see me looking back [Chorus] Sometimes you gotta keep walking Even though you're down and it hurts You know you gotta keep moving because you know how much you're worth And I won't be looking back and I won't be looking back [Verse 2] You can call me any name I don’t mind You can use curse you can find I'll still leave you standing so far behind And I won't be looking back Oh, this is bigger than you, you and me, yes There's no stopping what's just got to be So many hearts already open and free And we won't be looking back no [Chorus] Sometimes you gotta keep walking Even though you're down and it hurts You know you gotta keep moving because you know how much you're worth And I won't be looking back and I won't be looking back And I won't be looking back Found myself in a strange part of town Heavy heart and the rain coming down Makes me laugh when I think of it now 'Cause I won't be looking back No, I won't be looking back
