Around Here

Say you're sorry, but you don't mean it this time
It's in the air, all around, but you don't mind
Say you hope we can leave it all behind
That you were out of line

All these years of our friendship have long gone
Since you waited in the shadows to get him alone
I'll bet you never thought that I'd come home
But now I know

That the mess that you made
Is the mess I am now
And the words that you say
They don't mean anything somehow

Goodbye, Jolene
You just couldn't resist what wasn't yours to give
You lied to me
I still can't believe all the things I've seen
Goodbye, Jolene
And don't come back around here

I hear people say that you have changed
Tried to clear all the paths of your old ways
Gave yourself a new chance and a clean slate
But to me you're still the same

I don't buy anything that you're selling me
As if you now have the right to be believed in
From here on, I'll tell you how it's gonna be
'Cause now I see

That the mess that you made
Is the mess I am now
And the words that you say
They don't mean anything somehow

Goodbye, Jolene
You just couldn't resist what wasn't yours to give
You lied to me
I still can't believe all the things I've seen
Goodbye, Jolene
And don't come back around here

You can tell me what you want
But your words don't mean a thing
You can tell me what you want
But you're no longer believed in
You can tell me what you want
But your words don't mean a thing
You can tell me what you want
But I'm not listening

This is goodbye, Jolene
You just couldn't resist what wasn't yours to give
And lied to me
I still can't believe all the things I've seen
Goodbye, Jolene
And don't come back around here
Don't you come back around here
And don't come back around here
