THERESA SOKYRKA LYRICS - Turned My Back

"Turned My Back"



I turned my back on all the things that gave me trouble

Thought that maybe you'd leave too

I placed myself in a self reflecting bubble

To start living the way I wanted to

And when I told you that I loved you well I wasn't being true

And now I start to notice what I am without you



Wore my heart on my shoes

Don't know how I let it weigh me down

Expected more of the blues now that you're in town

And I can feel my fire burning longer, feel my strength getting stronger

All my memories of you and me are distant reality

Yes I can see you wandering on your own

And here I sit and think about you

Writing words that I never thought I'd know

Just to prove that I'm a person too



Never wore the bruises on my face

I never let on that it even took place

Living lies so thin I could hardly breathe the air

But you don't care

Please put your hands in my face again, let me be your believer

I believe you'll change, I believe you'll disarrange

But you don't care

Yes I can see you wondering on your own

And here I sit and think about you

Writing words that I never thought I'd know

Just to prove to you



Yes I can see you wandering on your own

And here I sit and think about you

Writing words that I thought I'd never know

Just to prove that I'm a person too
