Billy Squier Take A Look Behind Ya song lyrics

There's trouble on the rise--you can see it in the eyes of the livin'

There's an order to defy--there's a room at the back of your mind

Word gets out--what's it all about

Some take it in and some can do without

Don't hang out in the shadow of a doubt

It's time you split before they sign you out

They'll have you sing the blues...

Take a look behind ya

Take it on the run

Take a look behind ya

Look into the risin' sun

You can dance, you can sing, but it doesn't mean a thing without rhythm

You can slip--slide--stumble through the rest of your life

Time won't stop--never gonna stop ya

You push the limit 'til the day you drop

Time don't stop--race against the clock

You shun the risk--can you stand the shock

You got a lot to lose...

Take a look behind ya

Take it on the run

Take a look behind ya

Look into the risin' sun

Take a look behind ya

Take it as it comes

Take a look behind ya

Don't forget the things you done

You can run--you can hide but you never put aside what you're feelin'

Keep your balance--keep your stride--let it run through the heart of your life

Time don't stop--ready or not

You've got to give it everything you got

Life don't stop--take it to the top...

You miss a step feel the anchor drop

It all comes back to you...
