You said it's over now

It's just not right

You said there's a better place for you to be

It's not with me

Then you turned and walked away

I can't believe what I see

And I can't go to sleep at night when I think of how it used to be

She can't give you what I've got

And she can't stop your pain

And she can't love you the way I do

God I want you back again
Maybe she could try with money

Or she could buy you clothes

But baby when it's dark and you're home at night
Does she ever hold closeyou

She takes you out in style

She treats you right

She gives you all the things I never could, she's so good

But don't you think of me

Baby late at night

And I just can't take it boy, together we could be so right

She can't give you what I've got

And she can't stop your pain

And she can't love you the way I do

God I want you back again

Maybe she could try with money

Or she could buy you clothes

But baby when it's dark and you're nighthome at
Does she ever hold you close
Take me back

（Ooh you're gonna need me）

（Ooh you're gonna need me）
Take me back

（Ooh you're gonna need me）

All those things we did before

Whatever happened to them

And all those things I've been living for
Gotta start 'em all over again

You said it couldn't last

That we were meant to part

A guy like you and a girl like me didn't stand a chance - not from the start

But then you looked at me

I had to ask you why

As I see and try to find out why you left me for those hungry eyes

She can't give you what I've got

And she can't stop your pain

And she can't love you the way I do

God I want you back again

Maybe she could try with money

Or she could buy you clothes

But baby when it's dark and you're home at night
Does she ever hold you close
Take me back
Ooh you're gonna take me
Take me back
Ooh you're gonna take me
Take me back

Ooh you're gonna take me
Take me back...
