Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Took you like a shot Thought that I could chase you with a cold evening Let a couple years water down how I'm feeling about you (Feeling about you) And every time we talk Every single word builds up to this moment And I gotta convince myself I don't want it Even though I do (even though I do) You could break my heart in two But when it heals, it beats for you I know it's forward, but it's true I wanna hold you when I'm not supposed to When I'm lying close to someone else You're stuck in my head and I can't get you out of it If I could do it all again I know I'd go back to you I know I'd go back to you I know I'd go back to you We never got it right Playing and replaying old conversations Overthinking every word and I hate it 'Cause it's not me ('cause it's not me) And what's the point in hiding? Everybody knows we got unfinished business And I'll regret it if I didn't say This isn't what it could be (isn't what it could be) You could break my heart in two But when it heals, it beats for you I know it's forward, but it's true I wanna hold you when I'm not supposed to When I'm lying close to someone else You're stuck in my head and I can't get you out of it If I could do it all again I know I'd go back to you I know I'd go back to you I'd go back to you I'd go back to you What was there wasn't sure But I'd go back to you I know I'd go back to you You can break my heart in two But when it heals, it beats for you I know it's forward, but it's true Won't lie, I'd go back to you You know, my thoughts are running loose It's just a thing you make me do And I could fight, but what's the use? I know I'd go back to you I wanna hold you when I'm not supposed to When I'm lying close to someone else You're stuck in my head and I can't get you out of it If I could do it all again I know I'd go back to you I'd go back to you I'll go back to you I know I'd go back to you (I'd go back to you, I'd go back to you) I know I'd go back to you (Go back to you, go back to you) (Go back to you, go back to you) (Go back to you, go back to you)
