I looked into my baby's eyes I tried so hard to find some light When I looked there was no one there No one there at all I walked on down a crowded street I hard somebody talk to me When I turned around to speak There was no one there at all Can't go back, I can't go back Can't go back, I can't go back Can't go back, I can't go back To the place I was before I stuck a needle in my arm I stuck it in my baby's heart She looked so hot and sexy She wasn't there at all I heard some one break in my house They had a gun they had a knife But it was all behind my eyes There was no one there at all Can't go back, I can't go back Can't go back, I can't go back Can't go back, I can't go back To the place I was before My baby looked into my eyes She tried so hard to find some light When she looked there was no one there No one there at all Can't go back, I can't go back Can't go back, I can't go back Can't go back, I can't go back To the place I was before
