I Don’t Think I Could Take You Back Again Songtext
von Johnny Cash

Now you don′t have to worry about me, babe
Just hook 'em up and head on out to the places where you′ve been
Go ahead and fly like an eagle in the sky
And when you land you'll find I'm still your friend
But I don′t think I could take you back again

Ain′t no need to bother about me, babe
Someone will come along and she will take me by the hand
Together we will walk where the grass is green and new
And I'll even think about you now and then
But I don′t think I could take you back again

Hey, where you going? (Where you going?)
You can't get there without me
So goodbye, go on goodbye (goodbye)
And remember (and remember)
Though I′m setting you free
I won't cry, cry, cry (I won′t cry)


I've seen you toss and turning in your sleep, babe
Now your dreambags are packed
You've got your ticket in your hand
When you love someone
You want what′s best for them
That′s how it is and that's how it′s always been
And I don't think I could take you back again

Hey, where you going? (Where you going?)
You can′t get there without me
So goodbye, go on goodbye (goodbye)
And remember (and remember)
Though I'm setting you free
I won′t cry, cry, cry (I won't cry)

I've seen you toss and turning in your sleep, babe
Now your dreambags are packed
You′ve got your ticket in your hand
When you love someone
You want what′s best for them
That's how it is and that′s how it's always been
And I don′t think I could take you back again
