Why You Going Back

(hummmm) I see the tears you're trying hard to hide And that look

in your eyes every time he says goodbye

You keep giving chances hoping he'll change

But somehow it always ends the same

I've been standing here watching from the side Holding back these feelings

I can't deny Girl it hurts to see your heart get torn

apart When all I want is to protect your heart

Why you going back to him girl tell me why When he

keeps leaving you with tears to cry

I ain't saying I'm perfect but I'd sure try

To be the one who's standing by your side

I'd hold your hand when the road gets rough

Show you every day that you're enough Why you going back to

him when it's plain to see

I'd treat you better than he's treating you and me

I know love ain't something you can just turn off And walking

away can be hard and tough But you deserve a heart that's

true and kind Not someone who's always changing his mind

Every small-town road and every county line

Keeps bringing your memory back to mine

And if you ever need a place to land You'll always have

a friend in this heart and these hands

Why you going back to him girl tell me why When he

keeps leaving you with tears to cry I ain't saying I'm perfect

but I'd sure try To be the one who's standing by your

side

Maybe someday

you'll see what I've known all along

That real love doesn't have to be so

hard for so long Until then

I'll keep wishing for your happiness

No matter where your road may lead Why you going back to

him girl tell me why When you deserve a love that won't

say goodbye I'd be there through the sunshine and the rain Trying

every day to ease your pain I'd hold your hand when the

road gets rough Show you every day that you're enough Why you

going back to him when it's plain to see

Girl I'd treat you better

than he's treating you So if you ever need someone who'll stay

You

know where to find me someday Till then I'll be praying you

find what you need And

that

your heart finds peace

and believes
