Lyrics Looking Over My Shoulder - Mary Hopkin

Looking Over My Shoulder

Looking over my shoulder
What’s going on behind me
I can see the past and it’s fading at last
And I’m feeling like I’ve never felt before
Looking out my window
What’s going on outside me
I can see the future, with a promise of peace
And a freedom like I’ve never known before
So, I can’t understand it, why can’t I stop crying
These waves of emotion should carry me clear
But I’ve come face to face with my fears
And I can’t stop my tears
Look into my eyes now
What’s going on inside me
I can feel this passion become an obsession
And I need love like I’ve never done before
So I’ve found myself a lover
He loves me like no other
He satisfies, and his taste is much sweeter
Than I’ve tasted, tasted ever before
So I can’t understand it, why can’t I stop crying
These waves of emotion should carry me clear
But I’ve come face to face with my fears
And I can’t stop my tears, no, I can’t stop my tears
I can’t stop my tears
