Drops fall silently onto the chair
+
from the glass she knocked over.
+
still has her warmth left on it.
+
That was her parting word.
+
On the table, the ice in my glass
+
makes a dry sound as though to laugh at me.
+
Why don't you go after her, buddy?
+
What she is waiting for
+
is just one word from me...
+
I know that that is all
+
Take me back (I will take you back)
+
Take me back (In my arms)
+
'Cause I need your love (I hold you tight)
+
Tell me what you want (And I will never let you go)
+
Take me back (I'll take you back)
+
Take me back (In my arms)
+
Don't say goodbye (I hold you tight)
+
Let me try it again (Baby, you're mine)
+
She laughed at my jokes, just like always.
+
But this time, as she laughed, tears welled up in her eyes.
+
Her tears flickered sadly as if to beg me
+
to question her as to what they were doing there.
+
Now, I sit alone at the table.
+
with just one word, everything would begin.
+
At the same time, with that same word,
+
...that everything could end.
+
to keep that one word at bay?
+
Take me back (I will take you back)
+
Take me back (In my arms)
+
Gotta have your smile (I hold you tight)
+
I don't wanna cry (Baby, you're mine)
+
Take me back, baby (Take you back)
+
Take me back (I'll take you back, oh)
+
We've come this close, baby
+
