I hear your knock, I see you standing there
With hat and heart in your hand
But I don't have to see the questionnaire
To know just what you have planned
Girl you've hurt me ten times out of ten
So give my heartache it's due
I swear I can't go through you again
Even if I wanted to
If I wanted to I'd just close my eyes
And I'd open up my heart
If I wanted to I'd believe your lies
And then serve them A La Carte
Girl you're wanting me to convince myself
That my heart's not black-and-blue
I won't do it, I couldn't take you back
Even if I wanted to
If I wanted to I could make believe
You didn't cut me to the bone
If I wanted to I'd roll up my sleeves
And step into your hurting zone
Girl you're hoping I'll take a look at us
From a whole new point of view
I won't do it, I couldn't take you back
Even if I wanted to
I've been through it, so I couldn't take you back
Even if I wanted to
