Story Behind The Song
The Yin and Yang of Life pulls and pushes us through changes we make.
And in reflection... sometimes we wish we had changed our mind... The song contrasts the Blissful Feelings that carry us away.. with the Harsh Realities of one of Life's Painful lessons.... "You don't know what you got til its gone"
Song Description
Oh no ...Don't look back ...Doesn't really look like it's getting better

Lyrics
Surprise: LYRICS Keith Michael Field - KMF Muzik
You know ...How many things I never knew
So many wonders ...I see in you
How many things I wish I'd never done
Why so many choices we have made
I wish I never made before
Are you drifting far away?
So many things I wish I never
I wished I changed my mind sometime
People come ...people go
When they go ...when they go to
Its someplace far away.
So many places I've not seen before
How many things I wish I could change
How many faces I wish I had known
How many times I wish I could touch you
Chorus
Oh no ...Don't look back ...Doesn't really look like it's getting better
You don't know what you got till it's gone
You go around like nothing is wrong
Oh no, don't look back really doesn't look like it's getting better
You and I can look around the room
You and I we can be friends like cartoons
Oh no Oh no don't look back ...Doesn't really look like it's getting better
Got down and It's hard to let go
Going down to Mexico
Verse 2
You know ...How many things I never knew
So many wonders ...I see in you
How many things I wish I'd never done
Why so many choices we have made
I wish I never made before
Are you drifting far away?
So many things I wish I never
I wished I changed my mind sometime
Chorus
Oh no ...Don't look back ...Doesn't really look like it's getting better
You don't know what you got till it's gone
You go around like nothing is wrong
Oh no, don't look back ...really doesn't look like it's getting better
You and I can look around the room
You and I we can be friends like cartoons
Oh no if that is me
You mean so much to me
Got down and It's hard to let go
Now I'm going down to Mexico
Going down with a little bitty wick ... little bitty wick
Gotten down... and lost your kick
Little bitty wick
Little Bitty wick ...lost your kick
