Take Me Back
Embrace the Past: Rediscovering Love in Elton John's 'Take Me Back'
Lyrics
If you want my loving take me back
If you desire my affection, reconcile with me
If you miss my touch little girl take me back
If you long for my physical contact, come back to me, dear
When the dreams you lean on are beginning to crack
When the aspirations you rely on start to falter or break
Open up your heart little girl and take me back
Open your heart again and let me return, my dear
If you want my loving then take me back
If my love is what you want, reconsider and accept me once more
If you're on your own little girl take me back
If you find yourself alone, give me another chance
When the nights grow longer turning blacker than black
As the nights become darker and seemingly more distressing
Open up your heart little girl and take me back
Open your heart again and let me return, my dear
Playing a part you're well prepared for, there you stand
You're playing a role for which you're ready, standing firm
With all I ever cared for in your hand
With everything I cherished held in your possession
I'm waiting all the time
I'm patiently waiting constantly
For some kind of sign from you
Hoping for any signal or indication from you
And I'll go on and on this way
I'll persist in this manner, enduring
Waiting for the day
Waiting for that future day
When I will hear you say
When I'll finally hear you express
You'll take me back
Your intention to reconcile with me
If you want my loving well take me back
If you desire my affection, come back to me
If you're feeling down little girl
If you're feeling low, then reconsider our relationship
Then you'll take me back
If you search for the love you're missing
When you look around you for the love that you lack
Open your heart again and let me return, my dear
Open up your heart little girl
You got my heart little girl
Your heart belongs to me, my dear
Make a start little girl
Start anew, my dear
And say you'll take me back
Declare that you'll reconcile with me
Take me back
Reiterate the plea to reconcile and return to me
