"Get It Back" lyrics

Two hearts always break in a crooked line
You can say you're sorry but it still hurts every time
They keep saying, "Son, it'll be alright"
But hands on the clock and tears on the page don't lie

Cause the drugs don't work
When you feel this bad
There's no lighthouse in the distance
When you're this far out from home

I wish I would've known
I wish I would have known that
When you give your heart to someone
You might never get it back
I wish I would've known
I wish I would have known that
When you give your heart to someone
You might never get it, never get it back

Two smiles stay the same but a picture hides
No postcard from the future that could ever change your mind
They keep saying, "Girl, just live your life"
But just because they say it doesn't mean that they are right

You wish I would've known
You wish I would have known that
When you give your heart to someone
You might never get it back
You wish I would've known
You wish I would have known that
When you give your heart to someone
You might never get it, never get it back...

Cause the time will come
When the lights go down
And the drugs won't work
And the silence isn't peaceful
It reminds you that you're alone

I wish I would've known
I wish I would have known that
When you give your heart to someone
You might never get it back
I wish I would've known
I wish I would have known that
When you give your heart to someone
You might never get it, never get it back...
