Back to Me

Here we are again

Hanging by a thread

The truth is almost gone

There's no more love to save

You always got your way

But I'm tired of holding on

All your expectations fall on me

They're so heavy, baby

Maybe I'm just too close, too close to see

That I really don't know what you need

But I really don't think that it's me

And you never can tell where love leads

But it don't lead back to me

Said it don't lead back to me

No it don't lead back to me

Don't lead back to me babe, back to me babe, back to me

You said to give you space and time

But was it all a lie?

Just a way to hold me down

Now the water's flooding in

And you come back again

But can't you see I'm drowning?

All your expectations fall on me

Until I can't breathe

What's it gonna take to make you see?

That I really don't know what you need

But I really don't think that it's me

And you never can tell where love leads

But it don't lead back to me

No it don't lead back to me

No it don't lead back to me

Don't lead back to me babe, back to me babe, back to me

Gotta let it go - yes I do

Gotta leave it be - oh, oh

Giving up the ghost - giving up

Can you set me free - come on baby

Set me free, yeah - baby, baby, baby

'Cause I really don't know what you need

But I really don't think that it's me

No you never can tell where love leads

But it don't lead back to me

No it don't lead back to me

No it don't lead back to me

Don't lead back to me

Don't lead back to me

If you're lookin' for love, baby

You better not look my way

Cause it don't lead back to me

Don't lead back to me babe, back to me babe, back to me

No it ain't me, babe

Yeah...

Do what you need to do

Cause you never do know

Where love's gonna lead

But I can tell you for sure

That it don't lead back

No, no it don't lead back to me

I paid my dues

Gave you all my love

And now I'm through, baby

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
