Don’t Look Back in Anger Artists: Oasis Slip inside the eye of your mind Don’t you know you might find A better place to play You said that you’d never been But all the things that you’ve seen Will slowly fade away So I’ll start a revolution from my bed ’Cause you said the brains I had went to my head Step outside, summertime’s in bloom Stand up beside the fireplace Take that look from off your face You ain’t ever gonna burn my heart out And so Sally can wait, she knows it’s too late as we’re walking on by Her soul slides away, “But don’t look back in anger,” I heard you say Take me to the place where you go Where nobody knows if it’s night or day Please don’t put your life in the hands Of a Rock ’n’ Roll band Who’ll throw it all away Gonna start a revolution from my bed ’Cause you said the brains I had went to my head Step outside ’cause summertime’s in bloom Stand up beside the fireplace, take that look from off your face ’Cause you ain’t ever gonna burn my heart out And so Sally can wait She knows it’s too late as she’s walking on by My soul slides away “But don’t look back in anger,” I heard you say ... So Sally can wait She knows it’s too late as she’s walking on by My soul slides away “But don’t look back in anger, don’t look back in anger” I heard you say, “at least not today” Background This is a song by the English indie-rock band Oasis, written by the band’s guitarist and main songwriter, Noel Gallagher. Oasis formed in Manchester, England, in 1991, and following the Manchester Arena bombing after an Ariana Grande concert on May 22, the song was used by the people of Manchester in remembrance of the victims and to show the city’s spirit. |
