The Girl I Left Behind Me
It's old enough to try and tie you down
So, I just couldnât place and hung around
You always said that you must be free
Well you couldnât see you were losing me
And messin' up the one good thing we had
And now Iâm goin' out the same way that I came in
The game is over now, I couldnât win
My heart is all I have to pack
And this time girl I won't be back
And years from now Iâll turn around and see
The girl I left behind me
I told myself that things would be okay
It come around to my way any day
As time went on you just stayed the same
No, you couldnât change or be rearranged
Iâm pickin' up the pieces of my life
And now Iâm goin' out the same way that I came in
The game is over now, I couldnât win
My heart is all I have to pack
And this time girl I won't be back
And years from now Iâll turn around and see
The girl I left behind me
As time went on you just stayed the same
No, you, you couldnât change or be rearranged
Iâm pickin' up the pieces of my life
And now Iâm goin' out the same way. I came in
The game is over now, I couldnât win
My heart is all I have to pack
And this time girl I won't be back
And years from now Iâll turn around and see
The girl I left behind me
Behind me, behind me
So, I just couldnât place and hung around
You always said that you must be free
Well you couldnât see you were losing me
And messin' up the one good thing we had
And now Iâm goin' out the same way that I came in
The game is over now, I couldnât win
My heart is all I have to pack
And this time girl I won't be back
And years from now Iâll turn around and see
The girl I left behind me
I told myself that things would be okay
It come around to my way any day
As time went on you just stayed the same
No, you couldnât change or be rearranged
Iâm pickin' up the pieces of my life
And now Iâm goin' out the same way that I came in
The game is over now, I couldnât win
My heart is all I have to pack
And this time girl I won't be back
And years from now Iâll turn around and see
The girl I left behind me
As time went on you just stayed the same
No, you, you couldnât change or be rearranged
Iâm pickin' up the pieces of my life
And now Iâm goin' out the same way. I came in
The game is over now, I couldnât win
My heart is all I have to pack
And this time girl I won't be back
And years from now Iâll turn around and see
The girl I left behind me
Behind me, behind me
