BY MICHAEL MCDONALD/KENNY LOGGINS & ED SANFORD
I`M FADING OUT OF SIGHT
MY WHEELS ARE THE ONLY SOUND
RUNNIN` AT THE SPEED OF SIGHT
I CAN`T SLOW DOWN
OUT ON THE OPEN ROAD
RACING TO BEAT THE NIGHT
NO MATTER WHERE I GO
GUESS I`LL GET THERE ALL RIGHT
SO WHY DON`T I UNDERSTAND
WHAT`S TRIPPIN` ME UP
IT USED TO BE A SIMPLE THING
CHORUS:
I CAN`T HOLD ON, I CAN`T RETURN
TIME TO LET GO, START TO LIVE AND LEARN
I TOOK THE ONE WAY FLIGHT
TOO HIGH TO SEE THE GROUND
NOW I KNOW HOW LONG IT TAKES
A HEART TO COME DOWN
WHY DON`T I UNDERSTAND WHAT`S TRIPPIN` ME UP
IT OUGHT TO BE A SIMPLE THING
CHORUS:
I CAN`T HOLD ON, I CAN`T RETURN
RIVERS WILL RUN, BRIDGES WILL BURN
I`M NOT SURE JUST HOW
BUT THERE`S NO LOOKIN` BACK NOW
