Takin' It Back

Lyrics

You leave me high and dry

You abandoned me abruptly and left me in a difficult situation

Then you come back with a ring next time

You return with a commitment or proposal for a serious relationship

Pure oblivion

A state of complete unawareness or forgetfulness

When you're lookin straight into my eyes

When you directly look into my eyes


You got no idea what you're doin

You lack understanding of your actions

And I'm over it

I'm fed up and no longer interested


You can't keep givin' me love

You shouldn't continue giving me affection

Just to keep takin' it back

You consistently take back the love you've given

I bet it'd be tearing you up

If I reciprocated in the same way, it would bother you

If i did that

You would feel conflicted and distressed

I bet you'd be so confused

You'd be perplexed and uncertain

Running a game you can't lose

You're playing a risky game with uncertain outcomes


So don't go givin' me love

Don't express love if you plan to retract it later

If you'll be takin' it back

If you're going to take it back, don't give me love


I kinda Really wish you would

I truly wish you would take the time to self-reflect

Take some time to get yourself in check

The potential for a positive relationship exists if you sort yourself out

Cause this thing could be so good

This relationship has the potential to be great

You take too long and there'll be nothing left

If you delay, there might not be anything left to salvage


You got no idea what you're doin

You remain oblivious to the consequences of your actions

And I'm over it

I'm no longer interested or emotionally invested


You can't keep givin' me love

Stop offering affection only to retract it later

Just to keep takin' it back

If I reciprocated, it would trouble you deeply

I bet it'd be tearing you up

You would be torn apart emotionally

If i did that

If I behaved similarly, you would be confused and distressed

I bet you'd be so confused

You'd be in a state of uncertainty and confusion

Running a game you can't lose

Engaging in a risky game with uncertain outcomes


So don't go givin me love

Don't offer me love if you plan to retract it later

If you'll be takin' it back

If you intend to take it back, don't express love


You might be givin' me love

You may be giving me love in a learned manner

The way you learned to give love

However, that approach is ineffective or incompatible

But that's just not gonna work

The current way of giving love is not acceptable


You might be givin' me love

You might be offering love with the intention of taking it back

Just to keep takin' it back

If I reciprocated, it would disturb you deeply

I bet it'd be tearin you up

You would be emotionally torn if I followed that pattern

If i did that

If I behaved similarly, you would be confused and distressed

I bet you'd be so confused

You'd be in a state of uncertainty and confusion

Running a game you can't lose

Engaging in a risky game with uncertain outcomes


So don't go givin' me love

Don't express love if you plan to retract it later

If you'll be takin' it back

If you're going to take it back, don't give me love
