He left no time to regret 
Kept his [bad word] wet 
With his same old safe bet 
Me and my head high 
And my tears dry 
Get on without my guy 
You went back to what you knew 
So far removed from all that we went through 

And I tread a troubled track 
My odds are stacked 
I'll go back to black 

We only said good-bye with words 
I died a hundred times 
You go back to her 
And I go back to..... 

I go back to us 

I love you much 
It's not enough 
You love blow and I love puff 
And life is like a pipe 
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside 

We only said goodbye with words 
I died a hundred times 
You go back to her 
And I go back to 

Remember
Walking in the sand
Remember
Walking hand in hand
The night was so exciting
Her smile was so inviting
Then she touched my cheek
With her fingertips
Softly
Softly we'd meet with our lips

We only said goodbye with words 
I died a hundred times 
You go back to her 
And I go back to black
