I'll Be Back

.

You know, if you break my heart I'll go

But I'll be back again

'cause I told you once before goodbye

But I came back again

.

I love you so, oh

I'm the one who wants you

Yes I'm the one who wants you

oh, ho, oh, ho, oh

.

You could find better things to do

Than to break my heart again

This time I will try to show that I'm

Not trying to pretend

.

I thought that you would realize

That if I run away from you

that you would want me to

But I got a big surprise

Oh, ho, oh, ho, oh

.

I want to go, oh

But I hate to leave you

You know I hate to leave

Oh, ho, Oh, ho

.

You, if you break my heart I'll go

But I'll be back again
