Lyrics
Ray Charles - Here We Go Again with Norah Jones
Here we go again
He's back in town again
I'll take him back again
One more time
Here we go again
The phone will ring again
I'll be her fool again
One more time
I've been there before
And I will try it again
But any fool knows
That there's no way to win
Here we go again
She'll break my heart again
I'll play the part again
One more time
I'll take her back again
One more time
