You said it's over now
It's just not right
You said there's a better place for you to be
It's not with me
Then you turned and walked away
I can't believe what I see
And I can't go to sleep at night
When I think of how it used to be
'Cause, baby, she can't give you what I got
And she can't stop your pain
And she can't love you the way I do
God, I want you back again
Maybe she could try with money
Or she could buy you clothes
But baby, when it's dark and you're home at night
Does she ever hold you close?
She takes you out in style
She treats you right
She gives you all the things I never could
She's so good
But don't you think of me
Baby, late at night?
And I just can't take it, boy
'Cause together we could be so right
Baby, she can't give you what I got
And she can't stop your pain
And she can't love you the way I do
God, I want you back again
Maybe she could try with money
Or she could buy you clothes
But baby, when it's dark and you're home at night
Does she ever hold you close?
Take me back (ooh, you're gonna need me)
(Ooh, you're gonna need me)
Take me back (ooh, you're gonna need me)
(Ooh, ah)
All those things we did before
Whatever happened to them?
And all those things I've been living for
Gotta start 'em all over again
You said it couldn't last
That we were meant to part
A guy like you and a girl like me
Didn't stand a chance, not from the start
But then you looked at me
I had to ask you why
As I see and try to find out
Why you left me for those hungry eyes
Baby, she can't give you what I've got
And she can't stop your pain
And she can't love you the way I do
God, I want you back again
Maybe she could try with money
Or she could buy you clothes
But baby, when it's dark and you're home at night
Does she ever hold you close?
Take me back (ooh, you're gonna take me)
Take me back (ooh, you're gonna take me)
Take me back (ooh, you're gonna take me)
Take me back
(Ah, ah, ah)
You're not gonna leave me
(Ooh, you're gonna take me)
Take me back (ooh, you're gonna take me)
Yeah
(Ah, ah, ah)
(Ooh, you're gonna take me)
Take me back (ooh, you're gonna take me)
(Ooh, you're gonna take me)
(Ah, ah, ah)
(Ooh, you're gonna take me)
(Ooh, you're gonna take me)
Take me back (ooh, you're gonna take me)
Take me back
(Ah, ah, ah)
(Ooh, you're gonna take me)
