Lyrics
?No Future In The Past?
(Dwain C. Hathaway)
© 2002 D.C. Hathaway Music
You say your life is passing you by.
Did you ever wonder ?why??
You can?t have the one that you love.
Yet it seems to be all you?re thinking of.
Can?t you see time?s running out on you?
You?re living in a past you can?t undo.
Now the future?s already moving fast
and there?s just no future in the past.
CHORUS:
There?s no future in the past you?re living in.
It?s time to move on from where you?ve been.
We all love and lose sometimes and hope that love will last
but there?s just no future in the past.
You?ve been living in hope so many years.
Was it really worth crying all those tears?
The forecast of time is sad but true.
There?s no future in the past for you.
(CHORUS)
(SOLO AS CHORUS)
BRIDGE:
A broken heart is slow to mend when you can?t seem to let love end.
So leave the past where it belongs. The future sings a brand new song.
(CHORUS)
