Lyrics
I WON'T LET YOU
Verse:
Dancing on a crowded floor
I see your face once more
But you never look my way
I watch you as you leave the bar
To take her to your car
Then I turn and walk away
Pre Chorus:
Why was I a fool, to obey the golden rule?
Knowing that your heart?s untrue?
And I know when I get home you?ll be there on my phone
Begging me to come back to you.
Chorus:
I won?t let you in my heart again
Your lies will hurt no more
I?m doing what I should?ve done before.
I won?t let you break my heart again
The lesson I have learned,
You play with fire you will get burned.
Verse:
You think if we can talk it through
Then I?ll come back to you
With the clever words you say.
There?ll always be another girl
Somewhere in your world
You think I?ll look the other way.
Pre Chorus:
I?m tired of playing fair, when you don?t even care
About the shape I?m in
Only you can tell those lies that hurt me deep inside
So that I?ll take you back again
Chorus:
I won?t let you in my heart again
Your lies will work no more
I?m doing what I should?ve done before.
I won?t let you break my heart again
The lesson I have learned,
If you play with fire you will get burned.
Bridge:
What was I supposed to do?
To get the answers that you hide inside of you
When you burned the bridge that brought you to my heart
It tore us both a part?.
Tore us both a part
Last Chorus:
I won?t let you in my heart again
Your lies will work no more
I?m doing what I should?ve done before.
I won?t let you break my heart again
I?m no longer in the dark,
I won?t let you?..break my heart
