Back to You
The Chainsmokers & 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)

Line by Line Meaning
Took you like a shot
I pursued you suddenly and aggressively
Thought that I could chase you with a cold evening
I thought I could win you over with a romantic atmosphere
Let a couple years water down how I'm feeling about you
I tried to forget my feelings for you over the past few years
(Feeling about you)
My emotions and thoughts regarding you haven't changed much
And every time we talk
Whenever we have a conversation
Every single word builds up to this moment
Every word we say leads to this intense feeling
And I gotta convince myself I don't want it
I have to persuade myself that I don't desire a relationship with you
Even though I do (even though I do)
Although deep down, I do want to be with you
You could break my heart in two
You have the power to devastate me
But when it heals, it beats for you
Even though you could hurt me, I would still love you
I wanna hold you when I'm not supposed to
I want to embrace you even though it's not acceptable or appropriate
When I'm lying close to someone else
When I'm physically close to another person
You're stuck in my head and I can't get you out of it
You're constantly on my mind and I can't stop thinking about you
If I could do it all again
If I had the chance to start over
I know I'd go back to you
I would choose to be with you
We never got it right
We never succeeded in making our relationship work
Playing and replaying old conversations
Revisiting past discussions over and over again
Overthinking every word and I hate it
Analyzing everything we said and I despise it
'Cause it's not me ('cause it's not me)
Because that's not who I really am
And what's the point in hiding?
What's the purpose of keeping our feelings hidden?
Everybody knows we got unfinished business
Everyone is aware that we still have something left unfinished
And I'll regret it if I didn't say
I'll feel remorseful if I don't express this
This isn't what it could be (isn't what it could be)
Our relationship isn't living up to its potential
Won't lie, I'd go back to you
I won't deceive you, I would return to you
You know, my thoughts are running loose
My mind is racing and my thoughts are erratic
It's just a thing you make me do
It's because of you that I feel this way
And I could fight, but what's the use?
I could resist, but it would be futile
(Go back to you, go back to you)
Returning to you is what I want to do

@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
