Take Me Back
Super Db Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can we go back to something old?
Something we knew so well
Different sounds, different sights
Felt so new, felt so right

Come on, take me back
I want to relive those days
When we used to hang out
We'd get drunk and fool around
Say "I love you" and fall asleep
Wake up smiling, yeah we're happy

Come on, take me back
I want to relive those days
Yeah take me back
You'll be with me always

We've moved on, we have changed
Everything's different from those days
Wishing for that is quite a task
If I had a genie, it's what I'd ask

Come on, take me back
I want to relive those days




Yeah take me back
You'll be with me always
