We had a life, we had a love,

But you don't know what you've got 'til you lose it

Well that was then and this is now

And I want you back

How many times do I have to say I'm sorry

How can something so good go so bad

How can something so right go so wrong

I don't know, I don't have all the answers

But I want you back

How many times can I say I'm sorry

You can run, and you can hide

But I'm not leaving less you come with me

We've had our problems but I'm on your side

You're all I need, please believe in me

I only wanted someone to love

But something happened on the way to heaven

It got a hold of me and wouldn't let go

And I want you back

How many times do I have to say I'm sorry

You can run, and you can hide

But I'm not leaving less you come with me

We've had our problems but I'm on your side

You're all I need, please believe in me

You can run, and you can hide

But I'm not leaving less you come with me

We've had our problems but I'm on your side

Let me show you

They say you can't take it with you

When you go

And I believe it

But taking what I've got or being

here with you, you know

I'd rather leave it

We had a life, we had a love,

But you don't know what you've got 'til you lose it

Well that was then and this is now

And I want you back

How many times do I have to say I'm sorry

You can run, and you can hide

But I'm not leaving less you come with me

We've had our problems but I'm on your side

You're all I need, please believe in me

You can run, and you can hide

But I'm not leaving less you come with me

We've had our problems but I'm on your side

You're all I need, please believe in me
