You're back again
I knew that you'd come crawlin'
Standin' there,
you still look like a dream
But I'm reminded of the many times we've played this
game before
And I swear I can't believe that you keep comin' back
for more
But you wore out the welcome mat last time you slammed
the door
Ya can't come back this time
CHORUS:
While you were gone I had some time to think about
The way you did me wrong
Misery and heartache I can do without
Lost your hold on me
While you were gone
(no chord) dm
You rolled the dice
And lost this heart of mine
But you'll pay the price
Somewhere along the line
If you keep burnin' bridges, breakin' hearts and
slammin' doors
'Tryin' to find a way to fill the emptiness of yours
You're gonna find it comes around to what you did
before
Your world came crashin' in
