I thought you were the one for me

I thought you were the remedy

I thought so many things

But I now I just can't think about it



I brought you breakfast in your bed

I filled you up with tenderness

I told you I believe in meant to be

But now I doubt it

Because you (you)

You turn my whole world upside down



And I'm take, take, takin' it back

Everything that I said

Every word that I thought that I meant

Just forget

Take, takin' it back

Might be better to give then recieve

But I'm empty so so much for that

(so much for that)



I'm through with generosity

Look where that stuff has gotten me

Just let it go 'cause the girl I know

Isn't what she's cracked up to be

I bought you bling at Tiffany's

I wrote you endless poetry

I gave you everything that a girl could need

But there was another

See you (you)

You lied and you cried so perfectly



And I'm take, take, takin' it back

Everything that I said

Every word that I thought that I meant

Just forget

Take, takin' it back

Might be better to give then recieve

But I'm empty so so much for that



And now, I'm not about to save it (oh)

That's too late, it's faded to black



Take, take, takin' it back

Everything that I said

Every word that I thought that I meant

IT WAS AN ACT

Take, takin' it back

Might be better to give then recieve

But I'm empty, empty



And I'm take, take, takin' it back

Everything that I said

Every word that I thought that I meant

Just forget

Take, take, takin' it back

Might be better to give then recieve

But I'm empty, so so much for that

(so much for that)
