maybe i won't look back lyrics

I woke up from dreaming
I dreamed I got a call from a friend of mine
She sounded really lonely
But I had somewhere to be

I said, "I'll call you later"
'Cause I really have to go
I can't be late, she'll be okay, this is important
Then I forgot completely

You can be who you choose to be
But whether you do or whether you don't
It depends on your priorities
And I know that it's not easy

I'm looking for the peace to find some sleep tonight
'Cause I'm not really proud of the way I have lived today
But if I choose to follow him along the way
Then maybe I won't look back and feel like
Time has gone and passed me by

Maybe I won't look back
On those days I could have said something
In those times when I was needed, I was busy
Was it worth it? No, I don't think so
'Cause now I see the moment is gone

Maybe I won't look back
In some way I could have done something
A thoughtful word, a simple smile, I was selfish
But if I change my heart today tomorrow it might be okay
And maybe I won't look back

I woke up from a nightmare
Where I was walking down the street
Invisible and no one else could see me
All my chances were gone

I can't get your attention
I've had so many things to say but never tried
Afraid you wouldn't listen
I should have done it all differently

You can be who you choose to be
But whether you do or whether you don't
It depends on your priorities
Lord, help me choose them wisely

I'm looking for the peace to find some sleep tonight
'Cause I'm not very proud of the way that I have lived today
But if I choose to follow him along the way
Then maybe I won't look back and feel like
Time has gone and passed me by

Maybe I won't look back
On those days I could have said something
In those times when help was needed, I was busy
Was it worth it? No, I don't think so
'Cause now I see the moment is gone

Maybe I won't look back
In some way I could have done something
A thoughtful word, a simple smile, but I was selfish
But if I change my heart today tomorrow it might be okay
And maybe I won't look back

I can't hold on back and can't be shy
This is my big chance to live the life
I gotta stand up and take the ride
Throw all those useless excuses aside

There's so much to do, I got a lot to say
I don't always understand but I follow anyway
There is a bigger plan, a destiny

I'm looking for the peace to find some sleep tonight
'Cause I'm not very proud of the way I live today
And if I choose to follow him along the way
Then maybe I won't look back and fell like
Time has gone and passed me by

Maybe I won't look back
On those days I could have said something
In those times when I was needed, I was busy
Was it worth it? No, I don't think so
'Cause now I see the moment is gone

Maybe I won't look back
In some way I could have done something
A thoughtful word, a simple smile, but I was selfish
But if I change my heart today tomorrow it might be okay
And maybe I won't look back

Then maybe I won't look back
Then maybe I won't look back
