Never Goin' Back

by Anthony Island

Lyrics
No I'm not going back there, back there
'Cause I'm never going back there, back there
Never going back there, back there

Please stop calling me
'Cause I'm never going back there, back there
All you did was take from me, yeah
What have you ever done or given to me?
No I'm not going back there, back there
This time I can really see, yeah

I had a picture in my mind
Of what I dreamed to do with you
In the end that's all it was
It wasn't destined to be true
I had hopes for the future
Of finding something new
But it all went wrong and it all went blue
And my soul just turned on you
With you I thought I could fly away the years
But now I'm left just holding back the tears

You say you left with as much hurt as me
All I ever wanted for you
Was the same I wanted for me, to be happy

Please stop calling me
'Cause I'm never going back there, back there
All you did was take from me, yeah
What have you ever done or given to me?
No I'm not going back there, back there
This time I can really see, yeah

Why did you say you wanted
What you clearly couldn't have?
You said your intentions were true
When all they were was bad

If I had a penny
For all the things that went so wrong
I'd buy an island with the money

Retire and write my songs
If you knew the meaning of love
I wouldn't have to explain
If you knew the meaning of truth
I wouldn't have felt this pain
This'll be the last time now
Your chances are all gone
I cannot risk the pain again

If it all went wrong

Please stop calling me
'Cause I'm never going back there, back there
All you did was take from me, yeah
What have you ever done or given to me?
No I'm not going back there, back there
This time I can really see, yeah
Please stop calling me
'Cause I'm never going back there, back there

All you did was take from me, yeah
What have you ever done or given to me?
No I'm not going back there, back there

This time I can really see

Now you mean nothing to me
Now you mean nothing to me
Now you mean nothing to me, no
Now you mean nothing to me
