Back to What You Know

I don't know where to begin

Fighting a war I can't win

Fighting a memory

Something that used to be

No matter how hard I fight

All of my strength and my might

Keeps defeating me

It just keeps defeating me






So what I'm trying to say

I know what's happening

Your body's here with me

But your heart and your mind is still with him






Go back to what you know

Go back to where you know your heart is

Girl, just be honest (this is impossible)

This is impossible

We'll never work if you don't want it

Girl, you belong with him, so go back to what you know






Telling me things you used to

Do when he was with you

How he was o' so sweet

The way that he used to treat you

And since you just can't

Keep him out of your mind

It's obvious to me that I'm

Not where you want to be

Baby you don't want me






So what I'm trying to say

I know what's happening

Your body's here with me

But your heart and your mind is still with him






Go back to what you know

Go back to where you know your heart is

Girl, just be honest (this is impossible)

This is impossible

We'll never work if you don't want it

Girl, you belong with him, so go back to what you know






And if that's really what you want

I will not stand in your way

You wanna be free

I will let you be

I'd rather you happy

Then miserable with me

Back to what you know






Go back to what you know

Go back to where you know your heart is

Girl, just be honest (this is impossible)

This is impossible

We'll never work if you don't want it

Girl, you belong with him, so go back to what you know






Said ain't no way to make this last

You're stuck in the past

Pedal to the gas

And drive away
