Back Where You Started

Baby, tell me what you're trying to prove

Playing games with my heart

Hey now, listen, I ain't gonna take one more night

You're the one who broke the rules

And I'm the one who played the fool

Now you're trying to tell me it's alright

You should know better than to hurt a friend

You'll never get another chance again

You'll be back where you started

I know you won't admit it, but you're broken-hearted

Back where you started

You think it's gonna be easy, but it just gets harder, harder, harder, yeah

You had a way with words

One look and I was under your spell

I didn't know should I stay or should I run

You can't deny you told me lies

Love 'em and leave 'em baby, that's your style

I'm not afraid to take life as it comes

You play with fire, I guess you'll never learn

You mess with me babe, you're gonna get burned

You'll be back where you started

I know how it feels when you've been discarded

Back where you started

You think you got it made, but it won't get you far, no, it won't get you far

Back where you started

Who's gonna help ya? Throw you a lifeline

I'll tell you one thing, you've really done it this time

You took your one chance and let it slip away

You never try to let it settle down

The rule is getting out of the town

Back where you started

I know you wanna, baby, but you

Broken heart, tell me

Back where you started

You thought it's gon' be easy but, things get harder

Back where you started

You know how it feel

When you didn't start, do you

Back when you started

Ah-ah, ah!

Back where you started

Broken-hearted

Getting harder
