Can't Take Back Goodbye

I hear the doorbell ring late one Tuesday evening

You're standin' in the rain with flowers wrapped in cellophane

Think you can reappear, unannounced, show up here

Tellin' me you miss me, can't forget me and you want me back

Three, two, one, the clock's been tickin'

For about six months, that's way too long, baby

You can plead

You can cry and apologize

Hit your knees

And beg me to change my mind

Once you break a heart the way you broke mine

Ain't no way in hell you get another try

You can't unlie lies, you can't rewind time

And you can't take back goodbye

Hell no, you can't come in, ain't doin' this again

Save your breath and stop your talkin'

Turn around and just start walkin'

We had a good thing going, but you rolled it up and smoked it

Take your sorry somewhere else, 'cause I don't wanna hear it

You can plead

You can cry and apologize

Hit your knees

And beg me to change my mind

Once you break a heart the way you broke mine

Ain't no way in hell you get another try

You can't unlie lies, you can't rewind time

And you can't take back goodbye, uh-uh

Three, two, one, the clock's been tickin'

For about six months and I've moved on, baby

You can plead, you can cry and apologize

Hit your knees and beg me to change my mind

Once you break a heart the way you broke mine

Ain't no way in hell you get another try

You can't unlie lies, you can't rewind time

And you can't take back goodbye

Think I play that game, well, you must be high

You can't take back goodbye
