Lyrics

Some things are long for got ten,

some things were nev er said.

We were on one end less (C)road,

But I had a wand er ing (D7sus4)heart.

I said we were op po site lov (C)ers,

You kept try na prove me wrong.

And I know that I ran you (C)down,

so you ran a way with your (D7sus4)heart.

But just know that I want you back.

Just know (C)that I want you back.

Just know that I want you.

I’ll take the fall (C)and the fault in us, I’ll give you all the (C)love I nev er gave be fore I left you.

Just know that I want you back.

Just know (C)that I want you back.

Just know that I want you.

I’ll take the fall (C)and the fault in us, I’ll give you all the (C)love I nev er gave be fore I left you.

Just know that I want you you.
