"Take Me Back" lyrics

This diamond's nothing but a rock
If I could get back what I've lost
I'd trade it all for one less night alone
You took with you the world I know
'Cause I was young and throwing stones
That shattered all the glass that built this home

Give me a reason, a reason to stay
I hear that train out in the distance
And there'll be silence in a minute
If you don't give me a reason
A reason to live
'Cause I don't know what's after this
I'm praying I'll go where she is if you won't

Take me back
Before my mind starts to wander
And this dim light goes black
Just take me back
Before I close my eyes to see her
And give up everything I have
Just take me...
Ahhhhhh...

I'll rest my head against your chest
And hold my breath for what comes next
Hoping you won't leave me here again
I tell them all that it's okay
And I'll be fine but yesterday
Your momma called and tears ran down my face

Give me a reason, a reason to stay
I hear that train out in the distance
And there'll be silence in a minute
If you don't give me a reason
A reason to live
'Cause I don't know what's after this
I'm praying I'll go where she is if you won't

Take me back
Before my mind starts to wander
And this dim light goes black
Just take me back
Before I close my eyes to see her
And give up everything I have
Just take me...
Ahhhhhh...
