Baby you've got me thinking
'Bout the place I left behind
A suitcase in Helsinky
Full of things I wanna set on fire (set on fire)

The real is that you been lying
And no matter how hard I try
I won't be able to forget this
Cause this is very deep inside

What I left behind
What I left behind
Left behind
What I left behind

So I'ma fly back to Helsinky
And even stay there for a while
Gonna get my things back
Gonna get some fun, gonna drink till I pass out

I'm gonna get on to the table,
And dance my ass off till I die
I'm gonna hopefully forget you
And quit those nightmares I've been having

[Chorus]
Every night, every day
It's the same so hard to explain
A million pounds won't be enough
To make me step back at your face

That's what I left behind
Left behind
What I left behind
Left behind

Left behind
What I left behind
Left behind

[Chorus]

Baby you've got me thinking
Baby you've got me thinking
Baby you've got me thinking
About the place I left behind

A suitcase in Helsinky
Full of things I wanna set on fire
I'm gonna jump on to the table
And dance my ass off till I die
And I'm gonna hopefully forget you
And quit those nightmares I've been having

[Chorus: x2]

That's what I left behind
