Lyrics for Again
Song by Keri Hilson

[Intro]
I do it again
I do it again
I do it again
Miss Keri, baby!

[Verse 1]
I know I’m gone
Everything you do, you think so right but yeah you know you wrong
You wrong, you wrong
And I’m always trying to hold on
And you know when I’m ’bout to say these words in way more than a song

[Verse 2]
And you know I’m gonna miss you baby
Although you drive me crazy
I promised to stay when you met me but now I can’t get yo lady
We go back back and then forward then go forward, forward then back
But this time and I really mean it baby, I can’t take you back but I

[Pre-Chorus]
I pack my bags and leave and I come right back again
I say I’ll never do it but I just do it again
I pack my bags and leave and I come right back again
I say I’ll never do it but I just do it again

[Chorus]
I say I’ll never do it again
Then turn around and I do it again
I tell you that this is the end
And then I leave and I come back again, again and again
Although I say I’ll never do it again, I do it again
Although I say I’ll never do it again, I do it again

[Verse 3]
You got me, yeah you made me happy
Same breath I take it back, you done gone and pissed me off
I’m off that, leave and then I come back
Back and forth and forth and back
You must really think I’m soft
Cause’ you hurt me bad but I got it back
That’s why I can’t leave
Now I’m here on my back
Wassup with that
It’s like I’m on repeat

[Chorus]
I say I’ll never do it again
Then turn around and I do it again
I tell you that this is the end
And then I leave and I come back again, again and again
Although I say I’ll never do it again, I do it again
Although I say I’ll never do it again, I do it again
[Bridge]
Hot, cold, thought you know
When I’m trying to leave better let me go
You purposely push me away
All of a sudden, then you want me home
I hate how good you hit that, I be tryna quit that
But as time goes by, oh I can’t lie
I’m mad I really miss that
But you hurt me bad, and I got it bad
That’s why I can’t leave ooo
Now I’m on my back
Wassup with that
It’s like I’m on repeat

[Chorus]
I say I’ll never do it again
Then turn around and I do it again
I tell you that this is the end
And then I leave and I come back again, again and again
Although I say I’ll never do it again, I do it again
Although I say I’ll never do it again, I do it again

[Outro]
I do it again
I do it again
I do it again
Damn!
I do it again
