Lyrics Richard Marx

Richard Marx

Take You Back

Looks like history’s repeating

I don’t learn from my mistakes

I can’t feel the water rising

A wave will always break

I want to take you back

Back to where we started before

The lights had changed

Words we didn’t get to say seem to hit the hardest

Now just your memory is all that’s

Ever coming back to me

Now the heart you are defending

Has guards that I can’t kill

Can’t you see the happy ending?

I’ll race you standing still

Did you think that you could be

So far gone that I couldn’t find you?

Did you think you could leave

Every little piece of me behind you?

I want to take you back

Back to where we started before everything changed

Words we never get to say always hit the hardest

Now just your memory is all that’s

Ever coming back to me

I know you’re never coming back

To me, to me
