"Take It Back" lyrics - THE CHURCH

THE CHURCH
"Take It Back"

She said thanks for the present
Thanks for the future, too
But it'll take something better than this cliched love letter
To make me come back to you

You better take it back (take it to the metal)
Take it back (take it to the bone)
Take it back (take it anywhere I want)
Take it back (take it all back home)

When I first arrived in this brand new life
With my halo and clean slate
But then I dabbled and I meddled till I couldn't backpedal
And I hate my fate

I want to take it back (take it to the metal)
Take it back (take it to the bone)
Take it back (take it anywhere I want)
Take it back (take it all back home)

She said thanks for the memory
She said thanks for the booze
She said thanks for everything that made me sing
These elemental breakdown blues

Why don't you take it back (take it to the metal)
Take it back (take it to the bone)
Take it back (take it anywhere I want)
Take it back (take it all back home)

(Take it back, take it back)
