You're not dreaming. Yes, it's true I wanna start my life anew It's a knot that you can't undo There's no remedy for this flu It may come to you as a blow But I can't have you steppin' on my toes Your true being is starting to show Should have done this a long time ago Don't know about you, but I'm on my way I'm not going back, I'm not going to stay Don't know about you, but I'm on my way You're holding me back. Had to leave, some day What makes you think I'm your property? You're a sissy writing on poetry Won't keep me under your lock and key Prepare yourself for reality It should be understood that I said no It's not my problem if you can't let go Wanna get rid of this shadow And find myself a brand new beau Don't know about you, but I'm on my way I'm not going back, I'm not going to stay Don't know about you, but I'm on my way You're holding me back. Had to leave, some day It's affection that you like to crave I'm not prepared to be your slave No longer wanna be one of your babes Won't be dragging me into your grave Can't you see that I've lost interest? So, take your twiggy twigs from this nest 'Cause you're beginning to be a pest This is something that I won't regret Don't know about you, but I'm on my way I'm not going back, I'm not going to stay Don't know about you, but I'm on my way You're holding me back. Had to leave, some day Don't know about you, but I'm on my way I'm not going back, I'm not going to stay Don't know about you, but I'm on my way You're holding me back. Had to leave, some day
