Things were ok
Running pretty smooth day to day
Things were just fine
Everything I had was mine
But now all that’s changed, rearranged
What can I do to get back to
that place I knew what to do?

Never go back; never go back
I don’t ever want to go back
To the way things were
To the way things were
Never go back; never go back
I don’t ever want to go back
To the way things were
To the way things were

I’m missing my stuff
Comfort blanket with all the fluff
I’m missing my dream
White picket fence all around me
But all that’s gone, turn the page
I’ve cried my tears, spent my rage
Now a voice inside that sounds like mine
Is waking up, coming alive (singing)

Never go back; never go back
I don’t ever want to go back
To the way things were
To the way things were
Never go back; never go back
I don’t ever want to go back
To the way things were
To the way things were

You are calling me out, calling me out
You are calling me out
Into something new
Into somewhere new with you
And I don't ever want to go back

I had been sleepin’ ...

Never go back; Never go back
I don’t ever want to go back
To the way things were
To the way things were
Never go back; Never go back
I don’t ever want to go back
To the way things were
To the way things were

You are calling me out; Calling me out
You are calling me out
Into something new
Into somewhere new with you
And I don’t ever want to go back
