"Can't Go Back, Baby" lyrics

Can't go back, baby
Can't go back, baby
I wish I could, but I can't go
Can't go back, baby
To the days when I thought I knew ya

This is me you're talking about
Your only friend
Put your love into the ground
On my big weekend
While I was singing songs about you
On the TV screen
Don't know how he left the hotel
I wasn't there to see

In the morning
Your hands around my waist
Just us two
In the evening
On my mouth, could you still taste him?

Can't go back, baby
I wish I could, but I can't go
Can't go back, baby
To the days when I thought I knew ya
Can't go back, baby
You wish you could, but you can't go
Can't go back, baby

I wish you weren't dead to me
So much to miss in you
More than just my enemy
You were my lover, too

And I hope you forgive yourself
Because I swear I do
And it breaks my heart to say
I can't wait to live without you

In the morning, yeah, I wake up
With the sun across my face
In the evening, yeah, I lay with
So much love to take your place, and now I

Can't go back, baby
I wish I could, but I can't go
Can't go back, baby
To the days when I thought I knew ya
Can't go back, baby
You wish you could, but you can't go
Can't go back, baby
