Back for Good Lyrics

I guess now it's time for me to give up I feel it's time Got a picture of you beside me Got your lipstick mark still on your coffee cup Oh yeah Got a fist of pure emotion Got a head of shattered dreams Gotta leave it, gotta leave it all behind now Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it I just want you back for good (Want you back, want you back, want you back for good) Whenever I'm wrong Just tell me the song and I'll sing it You'll be right and understood (Want you back, want you back, want you back for good) I want you back for good Unaware but underlined I figured out this story (no no) It wasn't good (no no) But in a corner of my mind (corner of my mind) I celebrated glory But that was not to be In the twist of separation You excelled at being free Can't you find (can't you find) a little room inside for me Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it I just want you back for good (Want you back, want you back, want you back for good) See, I want you back for good Whenever I'm wrong Just tell me the song and I'll sing it You'll be right and understood (Want you back, want you back, want you back for good) I want you back for good And we'll be together This time is forever (forever) We'll be fighting, and forever we will be So complete in our love We will never be uncovered again Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it I just want you back for good (want you back, want you back, want you back for good) Whenever I'm wrong Just tell me the song and I'll sing it You'll be right and understood (Want you back, want you back, want you back for good) See, I want you back for good Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it I just want you back for good (Want you back, want you back, want you back for good) I want you back for good Whenever I'm wrong (whenever I'm wrong) Just tell me the song and I'll sing it You'll be right and understood I want you back (want you back, want you back, want you back for good) See, I want you back for good Oh yeah I guess now it's time that you came back for good
