"If Only" lyrics

"If Only"

Oh, yeah
Some days it's so easy
Sometimes I forget how
Much I want you back again, back again
Well, maybe it's a game
You win some and you lose some
And when you find a good one
Don't let her get away, don't let her go

Oh, yeah
If only I could have you
Just the way I want you
Oh, to have you back again, babe, back again, baby, oh

I am just a fool, baby
Playing Mr. Cool, baby
Rolling 'round
Like I got nothing much to lose
Oh, but I know you and you know me
And I know you could see
So help me find my way back to you
Back to you

I'm walking past your window
I used to smile and you'd throw
Your sweet kisses back to me, back to me
Oh, yeah
Remember when I asked you
If you'd be my one true
And it seems like yesterday, just like yesterday, baby, oh

I am just a fool, baby
Playing Mr. Cool, baby
Rolling 'round
Like I got nothing much to lose
Oh, but I know you and you know me
And I know you could see
So help me get my way back to you
Back to you

Oh...
I want you, so take me back
Please take me back, my baby

If only I could have you
Just the way I want you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I am just a fool, baby
Playing Mr. Cool, baby
Rolling 'round
Like I got nothing much to lose
Yeah, but I know you and you know me
And I know you could see
So help me get my way back to you

Oh...
I want you, so take me back
Please take me back, my baby

If only I could have you
Just the way I want you
Just the way I want, yeah

Ah-ah
Ah-ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
