Words and music by rick nielsen, robin zander, b. brandt & m. radice

Never look back but now never lose sight
Of your past, oh no
Change every moment knowing your decisions
They just won't last, oh no

Well it's different this time around
I won't look back 'cause I found
That gone are the days
Long are the nights
It feels right turning this time around

Always the danger of falling into
A mindless shell, oh yeah
Come out of your shell don't fall into a trap
You can't get out (can't get out, can't get out)

Well it's different this time around
I won't look back 'cause I found
That gone are the days
Long cold nights
It feels like turning this time around

When it hurts that bad
You know my temperature rises
It never goes down
It's goin' up
Straight up

When it hurts that bad
You know my temperature rises
It never goes down
It's goin' up
Straight up, straight up

Gone are the days
Long are the nights
It feels right turning this time around, oh yeah

It's different this time around
I won't look back 'cause I found
That gone are the days
Long are nights
It feels right turning this time around

(repeat to coda)
