Never Comin' Back Lyrics

[Verse 1]

We said "'til death do us part," babe

Does that include

The lust we mistook for love, babe?

It died too soon



[Pre-Chorus]

Now there's a blank slate reflecting heartbreak

Like dust under a rug, you're up and gone and swept away



[Chorus]

Standing in the rubble of a house we called a home

Dealing with the feeling of being all alone

Chewing 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 wherе the plans we made turn into thе past

It ain't so much the fact that you're leaving

It's the waiting on you

Knowing that you're never coming back



[Post-Chorus]

(Oh, oh)



[Verse 2]

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



[Chorus]

Standing in the rubble of a house we called a home

Dealing with the feeling of being all alone

Chewing 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 waiting on you

Knowing that you're never coming back



[Instrumental Break]



[Pre-Chorus]

Now there's a blank slate reflecting heartbreak

Like dust under a rug, you're up and gone and swept away



[Chorus]

Standing in the rubble of a house we called a home

Dealing with the feeling of being all alone

Chewing 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 waiting on you

Knowing that you're never coming back



[Post-Chorus]

(Oh, oh) Oh, you're never coming back



[Outro]

It ain't so much the fact that you're leaving

It's the waiting on you

Knowing that you're never coming back
