I dont think im gonna want you back
Cause i know it wont be easy like that
Dont come around and make me feel bad
Cause you know we both got no place to go
I dont think im gonna play your games
Its only gonna end one way
Things are always gonna be the same
If you never want to let me know
Back back turn it around, ound
Up and youre down down
Just let me know
In in in or you out
Oh its killing me now
If you'de just let me go

Nothin to save me now
Not when you're crashing down
Somebody break me out
Theres nothin to run for
Cause baby we're done for
If you dont let let let me go
If you dont let let let me go
I dont wanna lose lose lose control
But you dont let let let me go

Now you call me on the telaphone
Only want me when youre all alone
Turn the car around and drive back home
Cause youre never gonna let me know
And evrynight that you fall asleep
While youre dreamin of me
Im beggin you to set me free
Im beggin you to let me go
Back back turn it around, ound
Up and youre down down

You mean so much to me, youre everything i wanna be
But now youre taking it away from me
Im letting you know

Nothin to save me now
Not when you're crashing down
Somebody break me out

I dont wanna lose lose lose control
But you dont let let let me go
If you dont let let let me go
If you dont let let let me go




I dont wanna lose lose lose control
But you dont let let let me go
