Take It Back
The Temperance Movement Lyrics

Ridin high, gettin low
Feeling both happy and sad at the same time

Ridin high, gettin low, doin wrong
Experiencing emotional turmoil caused by making poor decisions

And I get lost, in your love
Feeling completely engulfed and overwhelmed by love

I get lost, in your love and it's strong
Feeling powerless against the strength of love

All my time, in this world
Having spent all of one's life on this earth

All my time, in this world I've been alone
Feeling loneliness despite having spent a long time on this earth

All I need, is a look
Craving a simple look from the one they love

Just a look from your eyes and I get hooked, yeah
Feeling addicted to the one they love with just a glance

Take it back, the way we was
Longing to return to a previous time when things were better

Take it back, back the way we was now
Wanting to go back to how things used to be

Like it loose, like it free
Preferring things to be relaxed and carefree

Get me all the way down to my knee
Wanting to be completely vulnerable and open

And I breathe, and I sigh
Feeling a deep sense of relief and contentment

And I fill up my lungs and I cry
Feeling such intense emotions that it brings them to tears

I get all the way home
After a long and difficult journey, finally getting to one's destination

I get all the way home then I leave
Feeling like one doesn't belong and needs to leave again

Every time, that you call
Feeling excited every time the person they love reaches out

They just know me 'cause since I, well I be all
Feeling like one's whole identity is tied to the one they love

I wanna slip down the alleyway
Feeling a desire to break free from the constraints of society

Sneakin' out the pen way
Wanting to escape from a difficult situation

Middle finger push hole
Having a rebellious attitude

Peakin' at you through the wall
Observing the one they love from a distance

I know you got my diamond ring
Feeling confident in the love and commitment from the other person

I caught you on the television
Feeling like the other person is always on their mind, even when not around

Dancing like a merry go
Feeling like the other person brings joy and happiness to one's life

That's how the story goes
Believing that their love story is meant to be

Woah, Woahoo
Expressing excitement and enthusiasm

Woah, Woahoo (won't you take it back)
Requesting to go back to a better time

Woah, Woahoo (c'mon, won't you take it back)
Urging the other person to join in and relive good memories

Woah, Woahoo (c'mon won't you take it back)
Continuing to request to go back to a previous time

Woah, Woahoo (c'mon won't you take it back)
Expressing a sense of desperation and longing to go back to a better time
