Every night I remember that evening The way you looked when you said you were leaving The way you cried as you turned to walk away The cruel words and the false accusations The mean looks and the same old frustrations I never thought that we'd throw it all away But we threw it all away. And I'm a little bit lost without you And I'm a bloody big mess inside And I'm a little bit lost without you This ain't a love song this is goodbye (ooh) This ain't a love song this is goodbye (ooh) I've been lost, I've been out, I've been losing I've been tired, I'm all hurt and confusion I've been mad, I'm the kind of man that I'm not I'm going down, I'll be coming back fighting I may be scared and a little bit frightened But I'll be back, I'll be coming back to life I'll be coming back to life And I'm a little bit lost without you And I'm a bloody big mess inside And I'm a little bit lost without you This ain't a love song this is goodbye (ooh) This ain't a love song this is goodbye (ooh) Who And you can try (you can try) And you can try but you'll never keep me down And you can try (you can try) And you can try but you'll never keep me down La la la la la la la la la (I won't be lost, I won't be down) And I'm a little bit lost without you And I'm a bloody big mess inside And I'm a little bit lost without you This ain't a love song this is goodbye It's alright (It's alright) cause you can try but you'll never keep me down It's alright (It's alright) I may be lost but you'll never keep me down You can try (you can try) you can try but you'll never keep me down You can try (you can try) I know I'm lost but I'm waiting to be found You'll never keep me down You'll never keep me down Never keep me down
