Song Description

female escapes abusive relationship

Lyrics

VERSE 1
SHE TOOK A LONG DEEP BREATH, AND A WRONG TURN LEFT
ON HER WAY HOME
'CAUSE SHE'D SEEN ENOUGH, SHE DIDN'T WANT NO MORE OF HIS KIND OF LOVE
SHE'D BEEN BLACK AND BLUE FOR TOO LONG HAD HER BACK AGAINST THE BRICK WALL
HER ONLY MONEY WAS THAT DIAMOND ON HER HAND
AND SHE AIN'T GOIN' BACK AGAIN SHE'S GONNA LEAVE THAT MAN

VERSE 2
WELL, IN A DIFFERENT TIME, HE REALLY BLEW HER MIND
SHE LOVED THAT MAN BUT THAT WAS LONG BEFORE, THE ENDLESS WAR THAT SHE CALLED HOME
HER PARENTS REALLY LOVED HIM I GUESS THEY NEVER REALLY KNEW HIM MAYBE THEY WON'T EVER UNDERSTAND
WHY SHE'S AIN'T GOIN' BACK AGAIN
JUST WHY SHE'S GOTTA LEAVE THAT MAN

BRIDGE
THERE AIN'T NO REGRETS, AIN'T NO TURNIN' BACK
IN THE CHAPTERS OF THIS BOOK THAT WE CALL LIFE
SHE'S ALWAYS GONNA LOVE HIM, SHE KNOWS SHE'S GONNA MISS HIM
AND THE BABY'S GONNA ASK FROM TIME TO TIME
BUT SHE'LL WORRY 'BOUT THAT LATER
'CAUSE RIGHT NOW SHE'S GONNA LEAVE THAT MAN
NO, SHE AIN'T GOIN' BACK AGAIN

VERSE 3
DRIVING DOWN AN OLD DIRT ROAD, CROSS THE OKLAHOMA LINE
THAT SHE CALLS HOME
SHE SAYS THAT'S GRANDMA'S HOUSE, BUT BEFORE WE GO INSIDE
HONEY YOU ALRIGHT? AND SHE SAYS "MOM I'VE SEEN HIM HIT YOU AND I DON'T THINK MY DADDY LOVE'S YOU"
AND WITH GOD ABOVE I KNOW WE'LL BE JUST FINE
AND WE AIN'T GOIN' BACK AGAIN GOD MADE US LEAVE THAT MAN

WE AIN'T GOIN' BACK AGAIN
YEAH, GOD MADE US LEAVE THAT MAN
