Can't Go Back Lyrics
In the time when everything was free,
And the whole damn world revolved round me
I can't go back and I wont go back to you
To believe somebody could pay for mistakes I so carelessly made
I can't go back and I wont go back to you
But I can't set free this part of me when I'm crawling back to you
And I wont let you forget how far we've come
Cause that one great final mistake, is that one thing I wont let you make
So take my advice and save you're good-byes
I wont let you fall apart on you're own, you're never alone
We burn the books and made it harder for you to be the fire starter
I can't go back and I wont go bk to u
And unless you leave I can't believe its me I see in you
And I wont let you forget how far we've come cuz that one great final mistake is the one thing I wont let you make
So take my advice and save you're good-byes.
You're gone, so move on, each time we let things go you're gone, so move on.
It's time we let things go, your gone, so move on.
And its that one great final mistake is the one thing I wont let you make
So take my advice and save you're goodbyes
I wont let you fall apart on you're own, you're never alone.
Told you I would doubt you(x2), without you I wouldn't doubt you(x2)
You're never alone, without you I wouldn't doubt you.
You're never alone
And the whole damn world revolved round me
I can't go back and I wont go back to you
To believe somebody could pay for mistakes I so carelessly made
I can't go back and I wont go back to you
But I can't set free this part of me when I'm crawling back to you
And I wont let you forget how far we've come
Cause that one great final mistake, is that one thing I wont let you make
I wont let you fall apart on you're own, you're never alone
We burn the books and made it harder for you to be the fire starter
I can't go back and I wont go bk to u
And unless you leave I can't believe its me I see in you
And I wont let you forget how far we've come cuz that one great final mistake is the one thing I wont let you make
So take my advice and save you're good-byes.
It's time we let things go, your gone, so move on.
And its that one great final mistake is the one thing I wont let you make
So take my advice and save you're goodbyes
I wont let you fall apart on you're own, you're never alone.
Told you I would doubt you(x2), without you I wouldn't doubt you(x2)
You're never alone, without you I wouldn't doubt you.
You're never alone

in the chorus,
[[Cause that one great final mistake is that one thing I wont let you make So take my advice and save your good-byes I wont let you fall apart on your own you're never alone]]
i think the "one great final mistake" is suicide. i think he, the singer, is trying to convince someone not to make that mistake by reminding the person of how many good times they've had together and how much people care about him/her.
this song really hits home for me because i have a friend that has contemplated suicide and she won't listen to anyone when we tell her how much we care about her. i just want to play this song for her, but i think she'd take it offensively.
anyone else feel the same way as i do about this song?
well i have two opinions.
at first i agreed with dialtoneeee with the idea of it being suicide because the chorus could fit that perfectly.
but looking at the rest of the song and the chorus together i think it has something to do with his gf or some one close to him leving him
To believe somebody could pay for mistakes I so carelessly made (he messed up the relationship?)
I can't go back and I wont go back to you But I can't set free this part of me when I'm crawling back to you (he cant take back his mistakes yet he always comes back to her)
Cause that one great final mistake, is that one thing I wont let you make So take my advice and save you're good-byes I wont let you fall apart on you're own, you're never alone (he doesnt want her ot leave?)
you're gone, so move on. It's time we let things go, your gone, so move on. (telling her okay then leave?)
without you I wouldn't doubt you. You're never alone (youve always got me so u dont have to leave)
it kinda goes back and forth from dont go to go but i think that what its bout :S
I think this song it about a couple who broke up. The guy thinks its for the best and they shouldn't be together but he wants her to know that he will always be there for her("I won't let you fall apart on your own, you're never alone."). He doesn't want to be with hes for the wrong reasons, which is why he is saying he cant go back, but he doesn't want her life to fall apart so he won't let her make that one great final mistake. That's what I get from it anyways. "I won't let you forget how far we've come" is my favourite part. Hits home for me.
