Going Back Songtext

von Tess Henley

You can't always get it right,
With even the best advice,
Sometimes you gotta find out for yourself.
My failure to recognize
What now seems so black and white
Is blamed on an anxious heart I know well.

I had never been so confused,
Feeling loved, then feeling used,
It was never right enough before it was wrong,
Asking questions deep down I knew
Date nights ending in sour feuds,
What took me so long?

And somewhere I lost it,
Lost sight of me,
This ain't who I am or who I wanna be.

I'm going back to where I started,
Back to when innocence was open hearted and,
I'll love again, I'll love smarter,

But I'm gonna love the next one,
I'm gonna love the next one harder.

Oh those stains in my memory,
How he frayed my sanity,
Nights driving home on a lonely road.
Listening to blue melodies,
With every word, crumbling,
Quickly losing strength to bear the load.

And somewhere I lost it,
Lost sight of me,
No this ain't who I am or who I wanna be.

(Repeat)

Ooooh, now I know the places I won't go,
Never will I see them again,
I am coming home,
I am coming home.

(Repeat)
