"Take Me Back" lyrics

"Take Me Back"

Take me back, take me back, take me back to your heart
Can't you love me again like you did at the start
There's a weight on my shoulders and I know I can't win
Take me back, take me back, again

I would call you to plead but I don't have the nerve
'Cause the thing that I need, I do not deserve
The way I was careless with your trust was a sin
Take me back, take me back, again

If my love was fire, it would burn this house down
With all of the lies that were told
But it's only a fever that burns me inside
From the longings of a broken down soul

Now the wind's blowing through and it's crying for me
'Cause it knows I was not what I wanted to be
And the sky must be sorry, 'cause it's starting to rain
Take me back, take me back, again

If my love was fire, it would burn this house down
With all of the lies that were told
But it's only a fever that burns me inside
From the longings of a broken down soul

Take me back, take me back, take me back to your heart
Can't you love me again like you did at the start

There's a weight on my shoulders and I know I can't win
Take me back, take me back again...
