Told you baby one more time Don't make me sit all alone and cry Well it's over I know it but I can't let go I'm like a fish out of water A cat in a tree

You don't even want to talk to me Well it's over I know it but I can't let go He won't take me back when I come around

Says he's sorry then he pulls me out I got a big chain around my neck And I'm broken down like a train wreck Well it's over I know it but I can't let go See I got a candle and it burns so bright

In my window every night Well it's over I know but I can't let go You don't like to see me standing around

Feel like I been shot and didn't fall down Well it's over I know it but I can't let go He won't take me back when I come around

Says he's sorry then he pulls me out I got a big chain around my neck And I'm broken down like a train wreck Well it's over I know it but I can't let go

Solo

Turn off trouble like you turn off a light

Went off and left me it just ain't right Well it's over I know it but I can't let go Rounds every corner something I see

Bring me right back how it used to be Well it's over I know it but I can't let go He won't take me back when I come around

Says he's sorry then he pulls me out I got a big chain around my neck And I'm broken down like a train wreck Well it's over I know it but I can't let go He won't take me back when I come around

Says he's sorry then he pulls me out I got a big chain around my neck And I'm broken down like a train wreck Well it's over I know it but I can't let go Well it's over I know it but I can't let go Well it's over I know it but I can't let go Well it's over I know it but I can't let go
