Take Me Back
Brick Lace Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take me back to the place where we were free
Didn't have a care in the world you see
All that really matter was
You and me
Time stood still the world was frozen
Best friends and lovers till eternity
You and me
But now the seasons changing
Every thing's been rearranging and
Now your kisses seem so cold
To busy to do the things we use to
It ain't the same anymore
Take me back (oh)
Take me back to where it was good (oh)
Take me back to where love was new (oh oh)
Take me back (oh)
'Cause I know things haven't been the way that they should (oh)
But I know if you try than baby you could (oh oh)
Take me back
Let's relive this special moment
The moments that we took for granted
They way you held my face in your hands (oh)
Caught in amazing love so true
Never thought that I'd loose you
Baby what am I to do (doo)
But now the seasons changing
Everythings been rearranging and
Your touches seem so cold
To busy to do the things we use to
It ain't the same anymore
Take me back (oh)
Take me back to where it was good (oh)
Take me back to where love was new (oh oh)
Take me back (oh)
'Cause I know things haven't been the way that they should (oh)
But I know if you try than baby you could (oh oh)
Take me back (take me back, yeah)
Baby we can't deny
What we had it was right for so long
(Where did we go wrong)
So let's try to replay all these magical days
'Cause we've been trough the grey cancel storm clouds away
Take me back (oh)
Take me back to where it was good (oh)
Take me back to where love was new (oh oh)
Take me back (oh)
'Cause I know things haven't been the way that they should (oh)
But I know if you try than baby you could (oh oh)
Take me back (Take me back baby)
Take me back (oh)
Take me back to where it was good (oh)
Take me back to where love was new (oh oh)

Take me back to the place where we were free
Return to the place where we were free from worry and strife
Didn't have a care in the world you see
There were no problems bothering us
All that really matter was
The only important thing was
You and me
Us as a couple
Time stood still the world was frozen
Time seemed to stop, everything was stationary
A pretty pictured love was sculpted
A beautiful, perfect love was created
Best friends and lovers till eternity
We were the best of friends and partners forever
But now the seasons changing
But now things have changed over time
Every thing's been rearranging and
Everything has been changing and shifting
Now your kisses seem so cold
Your kisses are no longer warm and loving
To busy to do the things we use to
We're too busy to do the things we once enjoyed
It ain't the same anymore
Things are not the way they used to be
Let's relive this special moment
Let's revisit this wonderful memory
The moments that we took for granted
The moments we didn't fully appreciate
They way you held my face in your hands (oh)
The way you used to hold my face in your hands with tenderness
Caught in amazing love so true
We were stuck in a true, incredible love
Never thought that I'd lose you
I never thought I'd lose your love
Baby what am I to do (doo)
I don't know what to do
Baby we can't deny
We can't deny our past love
What we had it was right for so long
Our relationship was right for a long time
(Where did we go wrong)
(What happened to our love)
So let's try to replay all these magical days
Let's try to recreate these wonderful moments
'Cause we've been trough the grey cancel storm clouds away
Because we have faced difficulties and overcome them
Take me back (take me back, yeah)
Take me back to our happy times
Take me back to where it was good (oh)
Take me back to when things were good
Take me back to where love was new (oh oh)
Take me back to when our love was fresh and new
'Cause I know things haven't been the way that they should (oh)
Because I know things haven't been going well
But I know if you try than baby you could (oh oh)
But I believe that if you try, we can make it work
Take me back (Take me back baby)
Take me back to our time of love and happiness
