I Want You Back
Longing Echoes: Reclaiming Love in Laura Zocca's Melody
Lyrics
When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around
Regretting not appreciating your presence when I had you exclusively
All those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
Others' admiration made you stand out
But someone picked you from a bunch, one glance was all it took
Someone else noticed and chose you with a single look
Now it's much too late for me to go & take a second look
Realizing it's too late to reconsider and retrieve the lost chance
Oh,baby, give me one more chance
Pleading for another opportunity
Won't you please let me back in your arms?
Asking to be accepted back into a relationship
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go,
Regretting the blindness in letting the person go
Now that I see you in her arms
Seeing the person with someone else
I want you back
Expressing the desire to reconcile
I want you back
Reiterating the longing to reconcile
I want you back
Repeating the desire to reconcile
Trying to live without your love is like one long sleepless night
Comparing life without the person's love to a sleepless night
Let me show you, boy, that I really know, I know wrong from right
Willingness to demonstrate understanding and correct past mistakes
Now every street you’re walkin’ on, I leave tear stains on the ground
Leaving a trail of sadness due to missing the person
Oh I followed a boy I didn't even want, I didn’t even want around
Following someone undesired, feeling regret for not appreciating the desired person
Oh,baby, give me one more chance
Pleading for another chance to express love
To show you that I love you
Expressing love and commitment
Won't you please let me back in your arms?
Requesting to be accepted back into a relationship
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go
Regretting the decision to let the person go
To let you go baby
Emphasizing regret for letting the person go
Now that I see you in her arms
Seeing the person with someone else and feeling regret
I want you back
Expressing the desire to reconcile
I want you back
Reiterating the longing to reconcile
I want you back
Repeating the desire to reconcile
