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
