Lyrics

She's got a way of getting so inside you
That you think she's gonna steal your soul
She's got a way of making sure that you can't let go
She's got a trail of broken hearts behind her
Like a shadow where no shadow's cast
I ain't the first one and I doubt that I'll be the last

Too long--too late
You're wrong
To ever think she'd wait

Chorus
She don't look back
She don't look back
The lady don't look back
And when she's gone she's gone

You can never tell just what she's after
You can never read it in her eyes
And in her laughter there's no hint of compromise
You can stare into the fire forever
You can squeeze a stone until it bleeds
But you will never find the kind of love she needs

Too much--too late
You're such a fool to think she'd wait

(Repeat chorus twice.)
