"BACK TO FOURTEEN" lyrics

The Twilight Sad Lyrics

"BACK TO FOURTEEN"

Mother, may I? Mother, may I?
Mother, may I lay down and cry?
Mother, may I? Mother, may I?
Mother, may I lay down and die?

Back at fourteen again, I'm back at fourteen
Back at fourteen again, I'm back at fourteen
Back at fourteen again, I'm back at fourteen
Back at fourteen again, I'm back at fourteen

Don't take her away, don't take her away
Don't take her away from me

I know, somewhere in there, you see me
Somewhere in there, you see me
There's someone behind those eyes

I know, somewhere in there, you see me
Somewhere in there, you see me
So lay me down to die, will you lay me down?

I'm back at fourteen again, I'm back at fourteen
I'm back at fourteen again, I'm back at fourteen
I'm back at fourteen again, I'm back at fourteen
I'm back at fourteen again

Am I the only that still sees you?
Am I the only that still loves you?
Am I the only that still sees you?
Am I the only that still loves you?
Someone behind those eyes
And don't take her away, don't take her away from me

Mother, may I? Mother, may I?
Mother, may I lay down and cry?
Mother, may I? Mother, may I?
Mother, may I lay down and die?
