Well, I had me

 a boy, turned

 him into a ma

 understand
            
Whoa, and then

            
 I let him go


Now, there's o

ne in Californ

ia who's been 

cursing my nam

e

'Cause I found

 me a better l

over in the UK
            
Hey, hey, unti

taway


[Pre-Chorus]

One, two, three, they gonna run back to me
N.C.
'Cause I'm the best baby that they never gotta keep
N.C.
One, two, three, they gonna run back to me
N.C.
They always wanna come, but they never wanna leave

d I love to ge

t low

So the hearts 

keep breaking,

 and the heads
