KJV - Hosea 2:7
And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: then shall she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.
She'll chase her past loves but won't catch them, searching but finding nothing. Then she'll say, "I'll go back to my first husband, things were better then."
