Lyrics
[acoustic intro]
[verse 1]
as a child,
I thought I knew,
how my life would be.
stupid you.
not a damn thing,
went as planned,
I lost that time,
I've been out-manned.
[verse 2]
my momma said,
find a lady,
she'll make you happy.
stupid me.
I couldn't find her,
Forever gone,
could anyone love me,
where did I go wrong.
[chorus]
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
I'm slowly breaking.
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
my sanity shaking.
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
I need to start over,
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
I need to find my lover.
[Verse 3]
in my old age,
so much time lost,
did I try my best,
what was the cost.
can I turn it around,
can I do it again,
I'm on my knees,
what will it take to win.
[Bridge]
I want to go back,
to when the pain was gone
I want to go back,
when nothing was wrong.
I want to go back,
to when the pain was gone
I want to go back,
when nothing was wrong.
[chorus]
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
I'm slowly breaking.
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
my sanity shaking.
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
I need to start over,
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
I need to find my lover.
[verse 4]
I never gave up,
I didn't stop,
get on your feet,
life's on the clock.
a glimmer of hope,
sleeps in my heart,
one day my life,
won't feel broken apart.
[Finale]
A hopeless romantic,
my fallacy.
was I naive,
too high an expectancy.
I can't go back,
only ahead
no stopping now,
my future still unsaid.
[chorus]
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
I'm slowly breaking.
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
my sanity shaking.
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
I need to start over,
I want to go back,
I want to go back,
I need to find my lover.
