Lori McKenna — Never Be Back lyrics

Lyrics

You and I for so many years
It’s just not that easy to pack up the tears
And the pain and forget
We just can’t end it When I’m not through with it yet
We build our walls and divide
And it’s so much simpler
When we don’t have to decide
Who is right? As if it matters
There’s never any doors
And we’ve burned all our letters
But it’s wrong to live life without you
It’s gone, I know it’s gone
But I can’t let it go Knowing it will never be back
You and I, through so many fights
And it’s not about the one
That we had the other night
It’s the ones we’ve never had
When you close your eyes to me And pretend you’re not mad
What if this is our one chance?
What if it’s a test and we failed?
We failed
You and I for so many years
It’s just not that easy to pack up the tears
And the pain and forget
We just can’t end it When I’m not through with it yet
And it’s wrong to live life without you
It’s gone, I know it’s gone
But I can’t let it go Knowing it will never
Well, I can’t let it go Knowing it will never
I can’t let it go Knowing it will never be back
Knowing it will never be back
