GONE FOR GOOD / LYRICS
The word around town
Is that, you're back in town
And I... try not to think about it, I try
But it's been so long
And I, thought I moved on
But... now I really doubt it, I do
I wonder why you even come
It's almost like you having fun with me
But oh if I set my eyes on you
It's unavoidable, I'll come undone
Oh I thought you were gone for good
So why do you have to pull me back
Sheybi you say
You won't be coming back o
Damn you, this is really bad
Sheybi you say
You were gone for good
Wetin you do wrong
Cause you knew all along
I was doing okay without you
You no want make I
Try to move on
Chai your heart is too strong
Can't be with you and can't be without you
The thing be say I
Wonder why you even come
It's almost like you having fun with me
But oh if I set my eyes on you
It's unavoidable, I'll come undone
Oh I thought you were gone for good
