Don't look back in the morning It's too late now, I was burning up Weighing me down like the alcohol I say the words and you listen The tears that fall, they glisten now Baby, hold me one last time ♪ Holy Mother got me in the grip of her hands Squeezing every drop of blood out of love The liquor burning holes in every word that I speak You say that you love me but won't let me breathe You say you love me but won't let me breathe You say you love me but won't let me I can't live and be loving I can't live and be telling the truth I can't live and be loving I can't live and be loving you Holy Mother got me in the grip of her hands Squeezing every drop of blood out of love The liquor burning holes in every word that I speak You say that you love me but won't let me breathe I'm praying that the words I say don't rip you apart 'Cause I know it hurts so much to break your heart It's midnight, and the screaming isn't doing us good You say that you love me, but you never could ♪ You say that you love me, but you never could ♪ You say that you love me, but you never could ♪ You say that you love me But baby, I swear I've tried There'e nothing more that I'd like Than to be yours for life But there's something inside screaming This is not right Give it a few more years Let the wound finally heal Who am I to hold you back From finding someone who could love you like that? ♪ Love you like that ♪ Love you like that
