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
