About Don’t Turn Around
“Don’t Turn Around” is a popular song written by Albert Hammond and Diane Warren. It was originally recorded by Tina Turner as the B-side to the single “Typical Male” in 1986. Warren is said to have been disappointed that Turner’s record company treated the song as a B-side and never included it on one of her albums. However it has since been included on the rarities disc of the 1994 compilation The Collected Recordings – Sixties to Nineties, as well as featuring in the Tina musical in 2018. It has been covered by a number of artists, most notably Luther Ingram in 1987, Aswad in 1988, and Ace of Base in 1993. « less
If you want to leave
I won’t beg you to stay
and if you gotta go darling
maybe it’s better that way
I’m gonna be strong
I’m gonna be fIne
don’t worry about this heart of mine
just walk out that door
yea see if I care
go on and go now but
don’t turn around
cause you’re gonna see my heart breaking
don’t turn around
I don’t want you seeing me cry
just walk away
It’s tearing me apart
that you’re leaving
I’m letting you go
but I won’t let you know
I won’t miss your arms around me
holding me tight
If you ever think about me
just know that I’ll be alright
I’m gonna be strong
I’m gonna do fine
don’t worry about this heart of mine
I know I’ll survive
sure I’ll make it through
and I’ll even learn to live without you
don’t turn around
cause you’re gonna see my heart breaking
don’t turn around
I don’t want you seeing me cry
just walk away
It’s tearing me apart
that you’re leaving
I’m letting you go
but I won’t let you know
I wish I could scream out loud
that I love you
I wish I could say to you
don’t go
as he walks away he feels the pain getting strong
people In your life they don’t know what’s goIng on
too proud to turn around he’s gone
don’t turn around
cause you’re gonna see my heart breaking
don’t turn around
I don’t want you seeing me cry
just walk away
It’s tearing me apart
that you’re leaving
I’m letting you go
but I won’t let you know
