Lyrics

I'll Be Back

You know

If you break my heart, I'll go

But I'll be back again

'Cause I

Told you once before, goodbye

But I came back again

You'll never know

I'm the one who loves you

Yes, I really love you

Whoa, oh

Whoa, oh

Whoa, oh

'Cause you

Could find better things to do

Than to break my heart in two

This time

I will try to show that I'm

Not trying to pretend

I wanna go

But I hate to leave you

Yes, I hate to leave you

Whoa, oh

Whoa, oh

Whoa, oh

I wanna go

But I hate to leave you

Yes, I hate to leave you

Whoa, oh

Whoa, oh

Whoa, oh

'Cause you

Could find better things to do

Than to break my heart in two

This time

I will try to show that I'm

Not trying to pretend

Not trying to pretend

Not trying to pretend

Not trying to pretend
