There was time (a time), I couldn't get you out of my mind (mind),
and since the day you came and tried to take control of me.
There came a day (a day), I thought about running away (away).
And now my bags are packed don't even think of holding me back.
I said nothing's gonna stop me now and I don't want to talk it over.
Nothing's gonna stop me now, gonna' break it up, gonna take my love away.
Day after day (day), I start slipping away (away),
you took my self-respect,
you made a fool out of me.
Time after time (time), I turned you round in my mind (mind),
and now my minds made up to leave the past behind me.
and since the day you came and tried to take control of me.
There came a day (a day), I thought about running away (away).
And now my bags are packed don't even think of holding me back.
I said nothing's gonna stop me now and I don't want to talk it over.
Nothing's gonna stop me now, gonna' break it up, gonna take my love away.
Day after day (day), I start slipping away (away),
you took my self-respect,
you made a fool out of me.
Time after time (time), I turned you round in my mind (mind),
and now my minds made up to leave the past behind me.
