Album: A Hundred Pounds of Clay: The Best of Gene McDaniels

Point Of No Return
Gene McDaniels
Peak chart position reached was # 21 in 1962
Words and Music by Gerry Goffin and Carole King

You know that once upon a time
I didn't need you so
It would have been so easy then
For me to turn and go
But now there's no leavin' you
I know that for a fact
I'm at the point of no return
And for me there'll be no turning back

I told myself you'd always be
A habit I could break
But now a day without your kiss
Would be so hard to take
You just can't get off a train
That's movin' down the track
I'm at the point of no return
And for me there'll be no turning back

Once I could have said "goodbye" but that was at the start
Now I think I'd rather die than be the one to say "We'll part"

Maybe you will break my heart
Or maybe you'll be true
No matter what the future brings
I've got to see it through
Maybe your love for me is nothin' but an act
I'm at the point of no return
And for me there'll be no turnin' back

Yeah, for me there'll be no turnin' back
Unh, unh, unh, unh, unh, unh
