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 whose heart was elsewhere, so I've decided not to care (oh yeah) 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 we'll 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 is so great to be alone And now you're knocking at my door, (ha ha) You've 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, he wants me back but he can't have me, no no no no no no he wants me back, back Ain't goin back (repeat 'til fade)
