Lyrics
Looking back upon my life
And the places that I've been
Pictures, faces, girls I've loved
I try to remember when
Faded memories on the wall
some names I have forgotten
But each one is a memory I
Look back on so often
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
Looking back what I have done
There's lots more life to live
At times I feel overwhelmed
I question what I can give
But I don't let it get me down
Or cause me too much sorrow
There's no doubt about who I am
I always have tomorrow
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
Looking back upon my life
<on my life>
Faded memories on the wall
<on the wall>
Looking now at who I am
<who am I?>
I don't let it get me down
<why should I let it get me down?>
Looking back upon my life
And the places that I've been
Pictures, faces, girls I've loved
I try to remember when
But I don't let it get me down
Or cause me too much sorrow
There's no doubt about who I am
I always have tomorrow
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
And the places that I've been
Pictures, faces, girls I've loved
I try to remember when
Faded memories on the wall
some names I have forgotten
But each one is a memory I
Look back on so often
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
Looking back what I have done
There's lots more life to live
At times I feel overwhelmed
I question what I can give
But I don't let it get me down
Or cause me too much sorrow
There's no doubt about who I am
I always have tomorrow
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
Looking back upon my life
<on my life>
Faded memories on the wall
<on the wall>
Looking now at who I am
<who am I?>
I don't let it get me down
<why should I let it get me down?>
Looking back upon my life
And the places that I've been
Pictures, faces, girls I've loved
I try to remember when
But I don't let it get me down
Or cause me too much sorrow
There's no doubt about who I am
I always have tomorrow
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
I was there
