We Get Back
Knox Hamilton Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How did you know we weren't breaking it off too soon?
And how did you know we weren't breaking it off too soon?
We got lost, we got lost here
How did you know we weren't breaking it off too soon?

You never looked back, no, you never did
You never looked back no, at the price we paid, it was a priceless place
We get back, we get back, don't you know?
We get back, we get back, on our own, oohh
We get back, we get back, don't you know?
We get back, we get back, on our own, oohh

You're not going to be dragging me down this time
I got fight that'll make you lose your mind
Yeah we were lost, we got lost here
But we've got fight that'll make you lose your mind

You never looked back, no, you never did
You never looked back no, at the price we hid, it was a priceless gift

We get back, we get back, don't you know?
We get back, we get back, on our own, oohh




We get back, we get back, don't you know?
We get back, we get back, on our own, oohh
