I Wouldn't Go Back Songtext
von Ray Boltz

I Wouldn′t Go Back
Words and Music by Lawrence Chewning
I wouldn't go back, I wouldn′t go back
I wouldn't go back
To that life I used to live
I wouldn't go back
I′m never going back again
That′s all behind me
So don't you remind me
It′s all too vivid in my mind
I wouldn't go back
To that life I used to live
I chose to leave it all behind
Lead me on, lead me on
Whatever it takes
Oh Lord, lead me on
I wouldn′t go back
To that life I used to live
Before the night I knelt
And asked God to forgive me


Oh, the pain I felt, the tears I shed,
The loneliness inside
I wouldn't go back
I wouldn′t go back, not I
I still recall that night one Fall
How close I came to ending my life
Just before You came
Lying on my bed
The ceiling over my head kept screaming,
Who are you anyway?
What could I say?
Sitting in my living room
Tears streaming down my face
Life was such a waste 'til I met You
Jesus! I wouldn't go back
I wouldn′t go back
Never again, never again
Never again, no
I wouldn′t go back
To that life I used to live
I wouldn't go back, I wouldn′t go back
I'll never go back
I′ll never go back
I'm never going back again
