lyrics

TAKE ME BACK
(Strider)
I’ve been walkin’ a tight rope
Since that day I regret
On pins and needles
Hopin’ you’d forget
But you wanna spite me
and rub it in my face
I may not be an angel,
but you don’t have a case

I come with clear intention
My love for you on track
It’s time for you
To change your point of view
I’ll give you one more chance
Take Me Back

All those innuendos
All them sneak attacks
All them baseless rumors
That talk behind my back
I’ve been tarred and feathered
I’ve been thistled and thorned
By a one-woman jury
My reputation scorned

I come with clear intention
My love for you on track
It’s time for you to change your point of view
Give me one more chance
Take Me Back

(Instrumental solo - baritone electric guitar: Pelle Jernryd)

Holy Moses, there’s so much at stake
Do you think I’d blow it, and throw it, in the lake?
We can walk on water, we can kiss the sky
When we’re reunited, to spread our wings and fly

I come with clear intention
My love for you on track
It’s time for you to change your point of view
I’ll give you one more chance
Take me back
Give me one more chance
Take Me Back, Take Me Back
Take Me Back, Take Me Back
Take Me Back (9x’s)
