Going Back Lyrics by Tess Henley

High Heels & Sneakers

0

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
And 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

(Chorus)
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 Chorus)

(Bridge)
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 Chorus)
Took me a while to really see
That ain’t how it’s supposed to be
I couldn’t give you up
You wouldn’t give enough
Asking questions deep down I knew
Date nights ending in feuds
Coming where I’m from
And the person I’d become
Two different faces fighting for a place
What was it to ya?
Breakin my heart
And watch me try to pick up every part
