Now I smoke a lot of cigarettes
And I've been drinking too much wine
You've been patient and understanding
I guess I went to far this time
I cut you with my drunken words
So much sharper than a knife
But, you turned the tables on me, baby
Just by walking out of my life
Too late to say I'm sorry
It won't happen anymore
But, you don't believe a word I say
'Cause you've heard it all before
But, all the same
Won't you take me back again
Don't say it's over
After all that we've been through
Take some time to think about it, baby
While I sing my song to you
Your suitcase by the back door
Packed with broken dreams
When night time comes to call on me
I'll know what loneliness means
But, all the same
Won't you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
All I'm asking is forgiveness
Won't you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
All I'm asking is forgiveness
Won't you take me back again
But, baby, all the same
Won't you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
But, baby, all the same
Won't you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
Won't you take me back again
No, no, no, no, take me back again
Don't walk away from me, baby
I begging you please
I begging you please
Take me back again
Take me back again
