Verse 1:
I dream about the way it was back when things were new
With all the changes in our lives that changed our lives for good
It might not have been for better, babe, but I know you know it had to be done

Pre-Chorus 1:
I try to go upon my day (Get my own thing)
But all I want is you back (In my arms babe)
Where do you belong? Where does all my love belong?

Chorus:
There's really nothing I could do
'Cause everything just leads back to you
There's really nothing I could say
That can change the way that it's always been (x2)

Hook:
The way it's always been

Verse 2:
I wish you know I hate to say this (Say this)
But I really think we could've made it (Made it)
Maybe I could've done a little bit more for the one I still adore

Pre-Chorus 2:
Still got your number in my phone (If it hasn't changed)
But I'm afraid to call you (What if it's changed)
When is the last time that we talked? Does that bother you at all?
Chorus:
There's really nothing I could do
'Cause everything just leads back to you
There's really nothing I could say
That can change the way that it's always been (x2)

Bridge:
That can change the way that it's always been (that it's always been)
That it'll always be (It'll always be)
No one else for you, No one else, but me
I'm sorry about the time unspent
Now that there's no time left
How will I ever heal, if I just can't forget
Everything comes back
Everything comes back to you

Chorus:
There's really nothing I could do
'Cause everything just leads back to you
There's really nothing I could say
That can change the way, change the way, nah nah
There's really nothing I could do
'Cause everything just leads back to you
There's really nothing I could say
That can change the way that it's always been
Hook:
Change the way that it's always been, no no, oh
I'll never change, never change, no, no
