Back to You
Selena Gomez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thought that I could chase you with a cold evening
Let a couple years water down how I'm feeling about you
(Feeling about you)
And every time we talk
Every single word builds up to this moment
And I gotta convince myself I don't want it
Even though I do (even though I do)
You could break my heart in two
But when it heals, it beats for you
I know it's forward, but it's true
I wanna hold you when I'm not supposed to
When I'm lying close to someone else
You're stuck in my head and I can't get you out of it
If I could do it all again
I know I'd go back to you
I know I'd go back to you
I know I'd go back to you
We never got it right
Playing and replaying old conversations
Overthinking every word and I hate it
'Cause it's not me ('cause it's not me)
And what's the point in hiding?
Everybody knows we got unfinished business
And I'll regret it if I didn't say
This isn't what it could be (isn't what it could be)
You could break my heart in two
But when it heals, it beats for you
I know it's forward, but it's true
I wanna hold you when I'm not supposed to
When I'm lying close to someone else
You're stuck in my head and I can't get you out of it
If I could do it all again
I know I'd go back to you
I know I'd go back to you
I'd go back to you
I'd go back to you
What was there wasn't sure
But I'd go back to you
I know I'd go back to you
You can break my heart in two
But when it heals, it beats for you
I know it's forward, but it's true
Won't lie, I'd go back to you
You know, my thoughts are running loose
It's just a thing you make me do
And I could fight, but what's the use?
I know I'd go back to you
I wanna hold you when I'm not supposed to
When I'm lying close to someone else
You're stuck in my head and I can't get you out of it
If I could do it all again
I know I'd go back to you
I'd go back to you
I'll go back to you
I know I'd go back to you
(I'd go back to you, I'd go back to you)
I know I'd go back to you
(Go back to you, go back to you)
(Go back to you, go back to you)
(Go back to you, go back to you)
In Selena Gomez's song "Back To You," the lyrics depict the complexity of a relationship that has been rocky in the past. The song begins by suggesting that the person she is singing about may be difficult to obtain ("Took you like a shot/ Thought that I could chase you with a cold evening"). Despite the obstacles that they face, the singer admits that she still has complex feelings for this person and can't help but care for them ("You could break my heart in two/ But when it heals, it beats for you/ I know it's forward, but it's true").
Throughout the rest of the song, she sings about wanting to be with this person despite the fact that they cannot be together, "I wanna hold you when I'm not supposed to/ When I'm lying close to someone else/ You're stuck in my head and I can't get you out of it." She recognizes that they have "unfinished business" and that they never got it right, but she can't seem to let go of her feelings for them.
Line by Line Meaning
Took you like a shot
I pursued you with haste
Thought that I could chase you with a cold evening
I believed that time would lessen my feelings for you
Let a couple years water down how I'm feeling about you (Feeling about you)
I thought that with time, I would move on from you and forget my feelings
And every time we talk
Whenever we communicate
Every single word builds up to this moment
Every word spoken leads to this point in time
And I gotta convince myself I don't want it
I have to persuade myself that I do not desire you
Even though I do (even though I do)
But in truth, I still do
You could break my heart in two
You have the power to shatter my heart
But when it heals, it beats for you
However, when it eventually mends, it still longs for you
I know it's forward, but it's true
I know it may seem too direct, but it is genuine
I wanna hold you when I'm not supposed to
I want to embrace you even though it's forbidden
When I'm lying close to someone else
When I'm near another person
You're stuck in my head and I can't get you out of it
You occupy my thoughts and I cannot remove you from my mind
If I could do it all again
If I had the chance to repeat everything
I know I'd go back to you
I am certain that I would return to you
We never got it right
We never succeeded in our relationship
Playing and replaying old conversations
Rehashing our previous dialogues
Overthinking every word and I hate it
Over-analyzing everything and disliking the process
'Cause it's not me ('cause it's not me)
Because this is not who I truly am
And what's the point in hiding?
What is the purpose of concealing our emotions?
Everybody knows we got unfinished business
Everyone is aware that we have unresolved issues
And I'll regret it if I didn't say
I will feel remorseful if I don't express myself
This isn't what it could be (isn't what it could be)
This isn't what our relationship has the potential to become
Won't lie, I'd go back to you
I won't deny it, I would return to you
You know, my thoughts are running loose
You know that I have a lot on my mind
It's just a thing you make me do
It's just something that you elicit from me
And I could fight, but what's the use?
And I could resist, but what would be the point?

@SelenaGomezIlluminati
Selena is a deceiver & a hypocrite. She craves FAME & WEALTH & wants to be in the SPOTLIGHT ALWAYS. Sold her SOUL long time AGO & FOOLED the world for YEARS. TIME THE TRUTH GOT EXPOSED. Profile pic is number 666 (AntiChrist) same Illuminati symbolism that Lady Gaga, Justin, Dua Lipa & so on used.
Selena Gomez admitted to having a "pizza" party on Ellen with Jennifer Anniston & we all know why they always talk about pizza parties. SELENA & 99% OF THE OTHER CELEBS ARE PART OF THE ILLUMINATI 🔺
Pizza is CODE in Hollyweird. Even Obama/Hilary Clinton also used that term aka Pizzagate which means adrenochrome which means they torture/kill children to harvest the chemical adrenochrome from their blood.
ONLY 1% WALK WITH GOD.
Illuminati/elite runs the show. Universal, Feds, Prison systems, NBA, NFL. Kpop, Disney & Hollywood 🔺
Entertainment industry heavily controlled by SATAN (LUCIFER)
Companies work for the ELITES. WAKE UP CALL & PEOPLE NEED TO OPEN THEIR EYES
