Yesterday the leaves were brown,

and i was wearing a big frown,

because my lover left me for the girl that he had loved before,

the sky was cloudy then turned blue,

because i saw it was no use to want someone whos heart was elsewhere,

so i decided not to care, (oh yeah)

CHORUS:

He wants me back, but he can't have me

he wants me back there's no denying,

he wants me back, he's on his knees

now lets see who's crying



the grass is greener without you, it's true

so many things for me to do,

living my life for me and on my own,

it's so great to be alone,

and now you're knocking at my door,

you realized you love me more,

well i've no time to hear apologies, i've got the world to see

REPEAT CHORUS (2x)

He wants me back, he wants me back

but he can't have me

he wants me back, back

Ain't goin back (repeat til fade
