(Can't go back, baby, yeah-yeah)
(Can't go back, baby, yeah-yeah)
I wish I could, but I can't go
(Can't go back, baby, yeah-yeah)
To the days when I thought I knew ya
This is me you're talking 'bout, your only friend
Put your love into the ground on my big weekend
While I was singing songs about you on the TV screen
Don't know how he left the hotel, I wasn't there to see
In the morning, your hands around my waist, just us two
In the evening, on my mouth, could you still taste him?
(Can't go back, baby, yeah-yeah)
I wish I could, but I can't go
(Can't go back, baby, yeah-yeah)
To the days when I thought I knew ya
(Can't go back, baby, yeah-yeah)
You wish you could, but you can't go
Can't go back, baby (la-la-la-la-la-la)
I wish you weren't dead to me, so much to miss in you
More than just my enemy, you were my lover too
And I hope you forgive yourself, because I swear I do
And it breaks my heart to say, I can't wait to live without you
In the morning, yeah, I wake up with the sun across my face
In the evening, yeah, I lay with so much love to take your place, and now I
(Can't go back, baby, yeah-yeah)
I wish I could, but I can't go
(Can't go back, baby, yeah-yeah)
To the days when I thought I knew ya
(Can't go back, baby, yeah-yeah)
You wish you could, but you can't go
Can't go back, baby (la-la-la-la-la-la)
(La-la-la-la-la-la)
(La-la-la-la-la-la)
(La-la-la-la-la-la)
