Yeah, 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 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
'Cause I can feel you slipping through my fingers
I don't even know the reason why

Everyday, 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?

I can see that look in your eye
I never dreamed it could be over
But I never wanted to say goodbye

Looking back over my shoulder
Oh, with an aching feeling inside
Cutting me up, oh, deeper and deeper
Fills me with a sadness that I can't hide
Looking back, looking back over my shoulder
