Take Me Back – Lyrics

Ah, take me back
Take me back where I belong
That’s with you, baby
Ah, take me back
Take me back where I belong
That’s with you, baby

I thought the grass was greener
On the other side
Thought the sun shine brighter
When I said goodbye
There’s a card in my hand
Tears fall like a rain
I wanna come home again
I want you to

Take me back
Take me back where I belong
That’s with you, baby
Ah, take me back
Take me back where I belong
That’s with you, baby
Ain’t no love in this world
Ain’t no love in this world without you
No, no, ain’t no love in this world
Ain’t no love, baby

In my search to find myself
I saw your face and nothin’ else
Every place I go
Everything I do
I still feel the need for you
Come on and

Take me back
Take me back where I belong
That’s with you, baby
Ah, take me back
Take me back where I belong
That’s with you, baby

I’m on my way back to you
And I wanna make it up to you
And all the problems that I caused you
If it takes my life I’ll make it up to you
I just want you to take me, take me
Take me, take me, take me, take me

Take me back, forgive me
Take me back where I belong
If you can, if you can find it
In your heart to forgive me
