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, 'cuase 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
