Take Me Back
L.f Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never said I could be
The guy you once saw in me.
I wasn't made to love you
Everyone make mistakes
We are both to blame.

We got to face it baby
The light has faded on us.
Leavin' a life that's hopeless
Oh ! don't you feel it's time to
Pack and say goodbye.

Take me back where I long to be
Where the music's free
And the lights are bright.

I can't explain, I can't explain
I'm sorry for your pain but
Take me back.

We got to face it baby

the light has faded on us.
Leavin' a life that's hopeless
Oh ! don't you feel it's time to
Pack and say goodbay.

Take me back where I long to be
Where the music's free
And the lights are bright.

I can't explain, I can't explain
I'm sorry for your pain but
Take me back.

I can't explain, I can't explain
I'm sorry for your pain but
Take me back.

Take me back,
Take me back,




Take me back,
Take me back

Where do we go from here?
Hold my heart and set me free.
Where do we go from here?
Kiss me with each melody.
Someone I used to fiend.
Cause I loved your forbidden touch.
The thought of you cuts so deep, so I'll open up my scar.
Cause it keeps me warm.
Just hold me close, I'll never let you go.
Cause now my blood is cold.
I'm waiting for the day you call my phone.
Take me back.

This is some of his best work. He can really capture that deep sadness and melancholic feel. I remember he had mentioned he wanted to steer clear of a really sad album because of how hard it was for him to write it. We all want him to remain mentally healthy, but it might also be therapeutic for him to vent his feelings. I can only imagine how amazing that album would be. Abel truly is talented not only with his obvious angelic voice, but his talent in capturing his audience in a feeling. He's already a household name. But to produce an album full of deep sadness and raw heartbreak, he could really break the internet with and capture an even wider audience. Everyone can relate to love and it's raw feelings.
