She left no time to regret
Kept her whip wet with her same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry, get on without my gal
And 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 goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
Yeah, you go back to her and I go back to to us
I love you much, it's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life feels like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rollin' up the walls inside

We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
Yeah, you go back to her and I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her and I go back to
To black, black, black, black
