Never Comin’ Back Songtext
von Flatland Cavalry

We said, "Til death do us part," babe
Does that include
The lust we mistook for love, babe?
That died too soon

Now there′s a blank slate reflecting heartbreak
Like dust under a rug, you're up and gone and swept away

Standin′ in the rubble of a house we called a home
Dealin' with the feelin' of being all alone
Chewin′ on the gravel that you kicked up when you left
And now I′m staring at your lipstick on a front yard cigarette
I guess this is where the plans we made turn into the past
It ain't so much the fact that you′re leaving
It's the waitin′ on you
Knowing that you're never comin′ back


I should probably change the locks, babe
(That'd be smart)
Toss that key under the rock, babe
(You broke my heart)
Rip that clock off of the wall, babe
'Cause you′re long, long gone, long, long gone
Long, long gone

Standin′ in the rubble of a house we called a home
Dealin' with the feelin′ of being all alone
Chewin' on the gravel that you kicked up when you left
And now I′m staring at your lipstick on a front yard cigarette
I guess this is where the plans we made turn into the past
It ain't so much the fact that you′re leaving
It's the waitin' on you
Knowing that you′re never comin′ back

Now there's a blank slate, reflecting heartbreak
Like dust under a rug, you′re up and gone and swept away

Standin' in the rubble of a house we called a home
Dealin′ with the feelin' of being all alone
Chewin′ on the gravel that you kicked up when you left
And now I'm staring at your lipstick on a front yard cigarette
I guess this is where the plans we made turn into the past
It ain't so much the fact that you′re leaving
It′s the waitin' on you
Knowing that you′re never comin' back


Oh, you′re never comin' back
It ain′t so much the fact that you're leaving
It's the waitin′ on you
Knowing that you′re never comin' back
