Lyrics
[Verse 1] You told me not to try and tie you down So, I just took my place and hung around You always said that you must be free Well, you couldn't see you were losing me And messing up the one good thing we had [Chorus] I'm going out the same way I came in The game is over now, I couldn't win Down inside, I feel alive But this time, girl, I won't be back And years from now, I'll turn around and see The girl I left behind me [Verse 2] I told myself that things would be okay You'd come around to my way any day As time went on, you just stayed the same No, you, you couldn't change, or be rearranged I'm picking up the pieces of my life [Chorus] Well, I'm going out the same way I came in The game is over now, I couldn't win Down inside, I feel alive But this time, girl, I won't be back And years from now, I'll turn around and see The girl I left behind me [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] And I'm picking up the pieces of my life [Chorus] Well, I'm going out the same way I came in The game is over now, I couldn't win Down inside, I feel alive But this time, girl, I won't be back And years from now, I'll turn around and see The girl I left behind me
