Not Going Back

She asked, would I take you back.

And I just said NO.

So she looked just a little sad, I said,

That will have to GO.

You never know what life can bring.

But of this I am sure.

I can say what caused this pain.

And I know the cure.

I tried, I tried, I tried and I’m not going back.

I tried. I tried. I tried and I’m not going back

I tried to be the one; I said.

Tried to be the cure.

I thought I was all that, and

Never was that pure.

You never know what life can bring.

And Devil’s had her day.

I know I can’t Dance or sing.

Now nothings in the way.

I tried. I tried. I tried and I’m not going back.
