[Chorus]
I had a slight diversion
But I'm back, I'm back, I'm back, I'm back
I had a slight diversion
But I'm back, I'm back, I'm back, I'm back
I used to say I loved you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I took a diversion, a diversion, a diversion
To bring my love back to you
Now, now, now, now

[Verse 1]
Oh, I hear that all the boys are treating you bad
And I hear that Sexy Red is all you got
But I'd take a bet with you that he never told you that I went to jail for you
Now, now, now, now

[Chorus]
I had a slight diversion
But I'm back, I'm back, I'm back, I'm back
I had a slight diversion
But I'm back, I'm back, I'm back, I'm back
I used to say I loved you
But yeah, yeah, yeah
I took a diversion, a diversion, a diversion
To bring my love back to you
Now, now, now, now
