Yesterday the leaves were brown, and I was wearing a big frown
Because my lover left me for the girl, that he had loved before
The sky was cloudy then turned blue, because I saw it was no use
To want someone whose heart was elsewhere,
so I've decided not to care (oh yeah)
He wants me back but he can't have me
He wants me back, there's no denying
He wants me back, he's on his knees
Now we'll see who's crying
The grass is greener without you, (it's true)
So many things for me to do
Living my life for me and on my own
It is so great to be alone
And now you're knocking at my door, (ha ha)
You've realized you love me more
Well I've no time to hear apologies, I've got the world to see
REPEAT CHORUS (2x)
He wants me back, he wants me back, he wants me back
but he can't have me, no no no no no no
he wants me back, back
Ain't goin back (repeat 'til fade)
