Lyrics:

Baby, tell me what you're trying to prove
Playin' games with my heart
Hey, now listen, I ain't gonna take one more night

You're the one who broke the rules
An' I'm the one who played the fool
Now you're tryin' to tell me, it's alright

You should heve known better than to hurt a friend
You'll never get another chance again

You'll be back where you started
I know you won't admit it
But you're brokenhearted
You'll be back where you started
You think it's gonna be easy
But it just gets harder, harder, harder, yeah

You had a way with words
One look an' I was under your spell
I didn't know, should I stay, should I run

You can't deny that you told me lies
Love 'em an' leave 'em baby, that's your style
I'm not afraid to take life as it comes

You play with fire, guess you'll never learn
You messed with me baby, gonna get burned

You'll be back where you started
An' you know how it feels
When you've been discarded
You'll be back where you started
But you think you got it made
But it won't get you far, no it won't get you far
You'll be back where you started

Who's gonna help ya, throw you a lifeline?
I'll tell you one thing, you've really done it this time
You took your one chance an' let it slip away

You never gonna let it settle down
The river's gone now all over the town

You'll be back where you started
I know you won't admit it
But you're brokenhearted
You'll be back where you started
You think it's gonna be easy
But it just gets harder

You'll be back where you started
An' you know how it feels
When you've been discarded
You'll be back where you started

Back where you started
Back where you started
Back where you started
You'll be back where you started
