Lyrics

Taking Me Back

Move into the morning
Champagne on our lips
Are we overthinking?
We can't come down like this

If I could, know I would try
Tell me now, tell me how to change your mind

I can't take it back, can't take it back
Is it even that bad?
We can go back, we can go back
'Cause I know you know our
Love is like that, love is like that
Can I talk you into
Taking me back, taking me back?

So baby, won't you slow down
This can make or break us
Hold out, spend the night and wake up
'Cause right now I can't seem to show you
We can go back, we can go back

Words fell out like water
Tangled in our thoughts
I just want to hold you
But you won't let us move on

If I could, know I would try
Tell me now, tell me how to change your mind

I can't take it back, can't take it back
Is it even that bad?
We can go back, we can go back
'Cause I know you know our
Love is like that, love is like that
Can I talk you into
Taking me back, taking me back?

So baby, won't you slow down
This can make or break us
Hold out, spend the night and wake up
'Cause right now I can't seem to show you
We can go back, we can go back

No, no, no
No, no, hey
Oh, we can go back, we can go back
Won't you take me back?
Won't you take me back?
Now, now

So baby, won't you slow down (Can't take it back, can't take it back)
This can make or break us
Hold out, spend the night and wake up
'Cause right now I can't seem to show you
We can go back, we can go back
