[Verse 1]
Opened up my heart once and should've known better
Said that you were falling and I took your word to the letter
Then you ran and threw my life off track
Now you think that you can come running back
[Chorus]
I don't care if you say you love me
It's too little, too late
Don't care if you can't live without me
You dug your grave
Don't care if the sky is falling
You shouldn't have lied
Had your chance, made me cry, why
There won't be a next time
[Verse 2]
Truth of the matter, when you left me lonely
In the heart of my hearts I knew it was a good thing
I was too hurt to love, but I was too young to die
Don't come knocking at my door, oh, keep your lies
[Chorus]
I don't care if you say you love me
Too little, too late
Don't care if you can't live without me
You dug your grave
Don't care if the sky is falling
You shouldn't have lied
Had your chance, made me cry, why
There won't be a next time
[Bridge]
I jumped right in
Gave you my all
You gave your word
You'd catch me, but you let me fall
Now I'm no longer crying
I won't be your fool
Now I'm washing my hands of you
I don't want you no more
I don't want you no more
I don't want you no more
I don't want you no more
No more
[Chorus]
I don't care if you say you love me
Too little, too late
Don't care if you can't live without me
You dug your grave
Don't care if the sky is falling
You shouldn't have lied
Had your chance, made me cry, why
There won't be a next time
[Outro]
Never gonna be, never gonna be, never gonna be a next time
Never gonna be, never gonna be, never gonna be a next time
Never gonna be, never gonna be, never gonna be a next time
Never gonna be, never gonna be, never gonna be a next time
A next time
Never gonna be a next time
Never gonna be a next time, next time
Never gonna be, never gonna be, never gonna be a next time
Never gonna be, never gonna be, never gonna be a next time
Never gonna be, never gonna be, never gonna be a next time
Never gonna be a next time, next time
Never gonna be, never gonna be, never gonna be a next time
Never gonna be, never gonna be, never gonna be a next time
Never gonna be, never gonna be, never gonna be a next time
Never, not ever
