Looking Back Lyrics by The Only Ones

2013

I said we don't belong together
That we would only get in our way
I said it couldn't last forever
(And ever)
That it would hurt more if I stayed
(I should have stayed away)

I tried to run from you
Feels like I'm running on a track
I keep on looking back
I keep on looking back

Why, oh why
do I say cruel words and never take them back
when you take me back?

Why, oh why
do I fight so hard to push you far away
when I want you to stay?
I should've just stayed away
Stayed away
I should've just stayed away
Stayed away

Why, oh why
do I try so hard to throw it all away?
I tried to run from you
But I was running on a track
I keep on looking back
I keep on looking back

I keep on looking back
