Let's Not Do This Again
The sweet memories of what we once had
Will forever grace my mind.
My heart will forever feel the need
To travel back in time.
To see where things went wrong
Or how it even started right.
To see where you fell in love
And where you lost sight.
Tonight is the final night
That I will shed these acid tears.
Never again will you get the chance to hurt me
And animate my fears.
I'm through, baby.
Your sweet nothings won't work this time.
You can try them on someone else's ears,
But they are meaningless to mine.
No more "Let's try this one more time."
No more "I'm your true love and you are mine."
No more "I messed up. Can I get a second chance."
No more of this love dance.
The third time was your last second chance.
I'm not trying to start all over anew.
I'm not trying to relive my mistakes with you.
I'm going to use the lessons that I've learned.
I'm going to find the good man that I've earned.
I'm going to find my true love and bestfriend.
So when you ask me the same question, I'll say
"Let's not do this again."
Will forever grace my mind.
My heart will forever feel the need
To travel back in time.
To see where things went wrong
Or how it even started right.
To see where you fell in love
And where you lost sight.
Tonight is the final night
That I will shed these acid tears.
Never again will you get the chance to hurt me
And animate my fears.
I'm through, baby.
Your sweet nothings won't work this time.
You can try them on someone else's ears,
But they are meaningless to mine.
No more "Let's try this one more time."
No more "I'm your true love and you are mine."
No more "I messed up. Can I get a second chance."
No more of this love dance.
The third time was your last second chance.
I'm not trying to start all over anew.
I'm not trying to relive my mistakes with you.
I'm going to use the lessons that I've learned.
I'm going to find the good man that I've earned.
I'm going to find my true love and bestfriend.
So when you ask me the same question, I'll say
"Let's not do this again."
