about the song :
this song is in fact a remake of "Don't Look Back", a 1965 song recorded by The Temptations for the Gordy (Motown) label. The b-side to their Top 20 hit "My Baby", "Don't Look back" broke out and became a hit among the R&B audience on its own, reaching #14 on the R&B charts.
Peter Tosh's reggae version with the modified title (You Gotta Walk) Don't Look Back actually did better on The Billboard Hot 100 Charts, peaking at #81 in 1978. The original Temptations' version only managed #83 in 1965.

lyrics :
There is no hiding place
Just your problems, no one else's problems
Could just have to face
If you just put your hand in mine
We're gonna lay all our troubles behind
We're gonna walk and don't look back
Gonna walk and don't look back
Now if your first love has let you down
There's something can be done
Don't you have your faith in love
Remembering what been gone
So if you just put your hand in mine
We're gonna lay all our troubles behind
Gonna walk and don't look back
We're gonna walk and don't look back
If you just put your hand in mine
We're gonna lay all our troubles behind
We're gonna walk and don't look back
Gonna walk and don't look back
Places behind you
There to remind you
If your first love have broke your heart
There's something can be done
Don't have your faith in love
Remembering what's been gone
But if you just put your hand in mine
We're gonna lay all our troubles behind
Gonna walk and don't look back
We're gonna walk and don't look back
