We Can't Turn Back Now Lyrics - Rodney Crowell

It's in the water, it's in the wind 

It's where you're going, it's where you've been 

It's what you're doing, it's what you don't 

It's what you're willing and what you won't 

A snowcapped mountain, a moonlit path 

An ice cold shower, a long hot bath 

It's something waiting for you just a little farther down the line 

You can't turn back now, you can't turn back now 

It's too late to turn back now

It's young and reckless, it's old and grey 

It's here tomorrow and gone today 

It's rich and famous, dark and dull 

It's Nostradamus meets Jethro Tull 

It knows your weakness, it feels your strength 

It jangle jingles, clacks and clinks 

It's ever present, but it's also like there's nothing there at all 

You can't turn back now, you can't turn back now 

It's too late to turn back now

Democracy won't work if we're asleep 

That kind of freedom is a vigil you must keep, you've gotta dig deep 

It's a wicked world, and we're all in it 

But that could change in a New York minute 

Holy terror and toxic gas ain't got nothing on leaves of grass 

So pray for peace until you're hoarse 

And maybe fear will run its course 

May God forgive us our insanity, and we'll keep pressing on 

You can't turn back now, you can't turn back now 

It's too late to turn back now 

It's too late to turn back now
