Lyrics
I held the world in my arms
I had a great deal of influence or control over the world.
I threw away the moon for the stars
I made sacrifices for something more distant or ambitious.
Couldn't see the forest for the trees
I couldn't perceive the bigger picture because of smaller details.
Couldn't see the love in front of me
I failed to recognize the love that was right in front of me.
What would it take to take me back?
What actions or changes are necessary to go back to a previous state?
Rebuild that bridge, retrace my tracks
To reconstruct connections and revisit past experiences.
I would give all I own, for one little stepping stone
I am willing to sacrifice everything I own for a small chance of reconciliation.
What would it take to take me back?
What steps or conditions would lead to a return to the past?
I miss waking up with you there
I miss the experience of waking up with your presence.
Morning sun bouncing off your hair
The morning sunlight reflecting off your hair is a cherished memory.
And you all tangled up in silk and lace
Remembering intimate moments with silk and lace involved.
A masterpiece no one can paint
Your presence is a unique and unparalleled masterpiece.
What would it take to take me back?
What circumstances would be necessary for a return to the past?
Rebuild that bridge, retrace my tracks
To reconstruct connections and revisit past experiences (repeated).
I would give all I own, for one little stepping stone
I am willing to give up everything I own for a chance to reconcile (repeated).
What would it take to take me back?
What steps or conditions would lead to a return to the past? (repeated)
Oh, what would it take to take me back?
Emphasizing the longing and the question of what it takes to return to the past.
