"Take Back Everything" lyrics

"Take Back Everything"

I miss the way you look
At 5:30 in the morning
On your way to work
With your eyes all puffy

I miss the way you smell
When you haven't showered in a couple days
It's still good to me
I miss just about everything

I used to think
That everything would work out fine

If this is what we wanted
If this is how it had to be
We never saw it coming
We never saw it unravelling

Now you got your own apartment
Yeah you got a brand-new set of keys
If this is what we wanted
Why do I wanna take back everything?

I still avoid the street
Where I first kissed ya on the corner
It was innocent
Before my mind had ever wandered

You're just as pretty now
But I know you think my words are empty
I couldn't settle down
Nothing you could do could change me

I used to tell you everything
Would work out fine

If this is what we wanted
If this is how it had to be
We never saw it coming
We never saw it unravelling

Now you got your own apartment
Yeah you got a brand-new set of keys
If this is what we wanted
Why do I wanna take back everything?

Spent the summer, lost and searching
For something missing
Now I'm up and toss and turning
But in different cities
Better to have loved and lost, right?
But I don't believe it

If this is what we wanted
Why do I wanna take back everything?

If this is what we wanted
If this is how it had to be
We never saw it coming
We never saw it unravelling

Now you got your own apartment
Yeah you got a brand-new set of keys
If this is what we wanted
Why do I wanna take back everything?
Why do I wanna take back everything?
