Looking Back

 

Years go by I see your face again

I’m thinking back on why it had to end

But now that I have clearly made it through

I’m looking back     Looking back at you

 

Are you ever going to change

Or are you to stay the same

 

To share my love was all I tried to do

You should know by now the rest was up to you

Will you ever turn to face the truth

I’m looking back     Looking back at you

 

It kept on getting harder everyday

With your twisted drama and the cruel games you play

‘Til I began to see all the way through

I’m looking back     Looking back at you

 

Looking back     I’m looking back at you

And now your ways are comin’ back to you

Looking back     I’m looking back through you

Those days of you are nothin’ but old news

Looking back     I’m looking back at you

Since I freed myself from livin’ a life of blues

                                                Looking back     I’m looking back through you                                               

   Had to leave it behind to move on into the new

Looking back     I’m looking back at you

Now that I’m done with payin’ them kinda dues

Looking back     I’m looking back through you

And now your ways are comin’ back to you

Comin’ back to you     Comin’ back to you

 

Are you ever to make the change

Or will you always be the same

 

I tried to reach you but there was no getting through

Unwilling to look at yourself and those issues

‘Til there was nothing more that I could do

I’m looking back     Looking back at you

 

So self absorbed you never had a clue

Havin' to deal with your crazy behavior too

 Finally I made the choice long overdue

I’m looking back     Looking back at you

And now your ways are comin’ back to you

Comin’ back to you  comin’ back to you

 Back to you  Back to you
