"I Want You Back" lyrics

When I had you to myself
I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch
One glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look

Oh, baby, give me one more chance (to show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me back in your heart
Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go (let you go, baby)
Now that you're not here in my arms (I want you back)
I want you back

Trying to live without your love is one long sleepless night
Let me show you now
That I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on
I leave tear stains on the ground
Following the one I didn't even want around

Oh, baby, give me one more chance (to show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me back in your heart
Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go (let you go, baby)
Now that you're not in my arms

Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go
Now that you're not here in my arms
I want you back
