Takin
Enrique Iglesias Lyrics

Go ahead just leave, can't hold you, you're free
You have the freedom to pursue what you want, so you are free to leave.

You take all these things, if they mean so much to you
You can take all the things that matter to you, even if they were given to you by me.

I gave you your dreams, 'cause you meant the world
I supported you in pursuing your dreams because you were everything to me.

So did I deserve to be left here hurt?
Questioning if it was fair to cause me pain after I had invested myself so fully in the relationship.

You think I don't know you're out of control
I am aware that you may have lost your sense of direction.

I ended up finding all of this from my boys
I found out about your reckless behavior from my friends.

Girl, you're stone cold, you say it ain't so
You appear indifferent and emotionless despite your questionable actions.

You already know I'm not attached to material
My affection for you is not based on any material possessions.

I'd give it all up but I'm takin' back my love
While I would willingly sacrifice everything for you, I am now taking back my love.

Yeah, what did I do but give love to you?
What more could I have done for you except to love you?

I'm just confused as I stand here and look at you
I am perplexed as I view your current state.

From head to feet, all that's not me
You have been affected deeply by the influence of outside forces.

Go 'head, keep the keys, that's not what I need from you
You can keep the keys to the house, they are of no importance to me.

You think that you know (I do)
Even though you might believe you know what's best, I understand the truth.

You've made yourself cold (Oh yeah)
You have become cold and indifferent to my feelings.

How could you believe them over me, I'm your girl
Why would you trust someone else's viewpoint over my perspective when I am your significant other?

So what? (You're out of control)
Your recklessness is not a valid excuse for your behavior.

Don't you know I'm not attached to material?
My love depends on your heart and not your possessions.

So all this love I give you, take it away (Uh, uh huh)
I am taking back all the love I gave you.

You think material's the reason I came (Uh, uh huh)
You believe that I am only with you for the physical possessions you have.

If I had nothing would you want me to stay (Uh, uh huh)
If I had nothing material to offer, would you still desire me to be with you?

You keep your money, take it all away
You can have all your possessions back as I don't want them.

Ooh, my love
The love that I have for you.
