[Intro]
Mmm, mm
[Verse 1]
I've been loved and I've been hated
I've been famous, I've been jaded
I've lost friends along the way I always thought were gonna stay and
Sometimes change don't feel good coming in and moving things around
But it's the one thing I can count on
And I feel it moving in me now
[Chorus]
Oh, I can never go back
No, I can never go back
To the way things were
The way it was before
It's painful letting go
But I ain't gonna lose hope
'Cause I know there's more
So much more
Like new wings on a butterfly ready to soar
I ain't gotta stay on the ground no more
All I see are free and open skies
There's a feeling that I am being reborn with new wings
And I ain't going back no more
[Verse 2]
One door closes, one more opens
And I don't know where I'm going
But my faith is redirecting me to right where I'm supposed to be
And as long as I got love inside my heart, and trust my lucky stars
I know there's something great ahead that's better than I've ever had
[Chorus]
So I can never go back
No, I can never go back
To the way things were
The way it was before
It's painful letting go
But I ain't gonna lose hope
'Cause I know there's more
So much more
Like new wings on a butterfly ready to soar
I ain't gotta stay on the ground no more
All I see are free and open skies
There's a feeling that I am being reborn with new wings
And I ain't going back no more
Oh, I ain't going back no more
[Bridge]
Sun goes up, the moon goes down
The whole world keeps spinning round
All we ever really have is now
[Chorus]
So I can never go back
No, I can never go back
To the way things were
The way it was before
It's painful letting go
But I ain't gonna lose hope
'Cause I know there's more
So much more
Like new wings on a butterfly ready to soar
I ain't gotta stay on the ground no more
All I see are free and open skies
There's a feeling that I am being reborn with new wings
And I ain't going back no more
Oh, I ain't going back no more, mm-mm
