I Won't Go Back

I Won’t Go Back

I finally got over you about a year ago

Took everything I had to say I had to go

It tore me up inside but I had to carry on

Must say it felt much better knowing you were gone

But then you called me up said you wanted one more chance

I guess you failed darling at that new romance

But I won’t go back

No, no, no

No I won’t go back

No, no, no

I know you think things will be better second time around

But it took a year to pull myself up off the ground

You tore my heart from me and tossed it aside

Felt like my life had ended, my poor heart died

And now you call me up, you want to try again

But I have nothing for you, not even a friend

And I won’t go back

No, no, no

No I won’t go back

No, no, no

I finally realized I was as good as any man

The way you beat me down, took a while to realize I am

Now I’ve got a woman here standing by my side

Who took away the darkness, made me feel alive

She reached into my soul and set my heart free

And gave me love so gentle, unconditionally

And I won’t go back

No, no, no

No I won’t go back

No, no, no
