There was a time
When your love meant a lot
How could something so cold
Come from something so hot?
I went along
As long as it was right
We'll always have
Whatever happened that nightI'm lookin' forward to lookin' back
Got my ticket to ride and my bags are packed
I'm lookin' out for myself again
Out on the outside lookin' in
Life is a '59 Cadillac
I'm lookin' forward to lookin' back
Words have a way
Of hiding what's real
I let my actions
Tell you just how I feel
If I've got nothin'
And I get to where I'm bound
At least then I'll know
Nothin' can get me down
I'm lookin' forward to lookin' back
Got my ticket to ride and my bags are packed
I'm lookin' out for myself again
Out on the outside lookin' in
Life is a '59 Cadillac
I'm lookin' forward to lookin' back
Let me tell you how it is with you and me:
It only matters how we are as a memory
I'm lookin' forward to lookin' back
Got my ticket to ride and my bags are packed
Lookin' out for myself again
Out on the outside lookin' in
Life is a '59 Cadillac
I'm lookin' forward to lookin' back
