I Want You Back
Kika Lyrics

When I had you to myself
During the time when I was the only one who had you and your attention

Didn't want you around
I didn't appreciate your presence or value your company

Those pretty faces always made you
The attractive individuals made you feel special or stand out

Stand out in a crowd
You became noticeable and distinct among others

But someone picked you from the bunch
However, someone else selected you from all the options available

One glance was all it took
Just one look was enough to capture their attention and interest

And now it's much too late for
At this point, it is too late for me

Me to take a second look
To reconsider or give another chance to what we had

Oh, baby, give me one more chance
Oh, my love, please provide me with another opportunity

(To show you that I love you)
(To demonstrate my true feelings of love for you)

Won't you please let me back in your heart
Could you kindly allow me to re-enter and be a part of your heart and life?

Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go
My dear, I was oblivious and made a mistake by letting you slip away

(Let you go, baby)
(Allowing you to leave, my dear)

But now since I see you in his arms
However, now that I witness you being held by someone else

(I want you back)
(I desire to have you back with me)

Yes, I do now (I want you back)
Indeed, I truly desire to have you back in my life now

Ooh, ooh, baby (I want you back)
Oh, my love, I yearn to have you back with me

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (I want you back)
Yes, yes, yes, yes, I deeply want you to return to me

Na, na, na, na
Vocalization without a specific meaning

Tryin' to live without your love
Struggling to exist or function without the presence of your love

Is one long sleepless night
Results in enduring extensive periods of insomnia and restlessness

Let me show you, girl
Allow me to demonstrate, my dear

That I know wrong from right
That I am aware of what is moral and correct

Every street you walk on I leave
Wherever you go, I am left behind

Tear stains on the ground
Leaving marks of emotional distress and tears on the surface

Following the girl I didn't even want around
Pursuing the girl whom I initially did not value or desire to be with

Oh, baby, give me one more chance
Oh, my love, please grant me another opportunity

(To show you that I love you)
(To illustrate and prove my affection for you)

Won't you please let me back in your heart
Could you please allow me to re-enter and be a part of your heart and life?

Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go
My dear, I failed to see the value and let you slip away

(Let you go, baby)
(Allowing you to leave, my dear)

But now since I see you in his arms
However, now that I witness you being held by someone else

(I want you back)
(I desire to have you back with me)

Oh, baby, give me one more chance
Oh, my love, please provide me with another opportunity

(To show you that I love you)
(To demonstrate my true feelings of love for you)

Won't you please let me back in your heart
Could you kindly allow me to re-enter and be a part of your heart and life?

Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go
My dear, I failed to see the value and let you slip away

(Let you go, baby)
(Allowing you to leave, my dear)

But now since I see you in his arms
However, now that I witness you being held by someone else

Oh, oh, oh yeah, yeah, yeah baby, baby, baby
Expressing emotional longing and desperation for the person's return
