Looking Back (over My Shoulder) Lyrics
Looking back over my shoulder
I can see that look in your eye
I never dreamed it could be over
I never wanted to say goodbye
Looking back over my shoulder
With an aching deep in my heart
I wish that we were starting over
Oh instead of drifting so far apart
Everybody told me you were leaving
Funny I should be the last to know
Baby please tell me that I'm dreaming
I just never want to let you go
Looking back over my shoulder
I can see that look in your eye
Turning my heart over and over
I never wanted to say goodbye
I don't mind everybody laughing
But it's enough to make a grown man cry
Cos I can feel you slipping through my fingers
I don't even know the reason why
Every day it's a losing battle
Just to smile and hold my head up high
Could it be that we belong together
Baby won't you give me one more try
One more try
Looking back over my shoulder
I can see that look in your eye
I never dreamed it could be over
I never wanted to say goodbye
Looking back over my shoulder
Oh with an aching feeling inside
Cutting me up, deeper and deeper
Fills me with a sadness that I can't hide
Looking back over my shoulder
I can see that look in your eye
I never dreamed no no it could be over
I never wanted to say goodbye
Looking back over my shoulder
I can see that look in your eye
I can see that look in your eye
I never dreamed it could be over
I never wanted to say goodbye
With an aching deep in my heart
I wish that we were starting over
Oh instead of drifting so far apart
Funny I should be the last to know
Baby please tell me that I'm dreaming
I just never want to let you go
I can see that look in your eye
Turning my heart over and over
I never wanted to say goodbye
But it's enough to make a grown man cry
Cos I can feel you slipping through my fingers
I don't even know the reason why
Just to smile and hold my head up high
Could it be that we belong together
Baby won't you give me one more try
One more try
I can see that look in your eye
I never dreamed it could be over
I never wanted to say goodbye
Oh with an aching feeling inside
Cutting me up, deeper and deeper
Fills me with a sadness that I can't hide
I can see that look in your eye
I never dreamed no no it could be over
I never wanted to say goodbye
I can see that look in your eye
