Once upon a time
I thought everything
would turn out fine
just like lines in books
Now I'm caught
caught up in a tangled web
All the things you said I bought
like a fool I'd shout it loud
I don't care what they say
and now it's clear that
all of it was make believe
Now and then I think
now and then I think too much
about you in my sleep
about you in my sleep
And when the dreams have
all come back and settled down
And the stupid nightmares hang around
with the visions of the one
you're with now
I know I tried to get you out
my broken mind
And to leave the past
we have behind
But it's no use wishing
now for things like that
I want you back
Well I really truly tried
in the way you'd want me to
and never do you harm
I it couldn't last
'cause of what I said to you
And you knew it all along
you couldn't have just said to me
I don't care about it
no you couldn't say
Hey girl leave it all behind
Well now and then I think
now and then I think too much
about you in my sleep
about you in my sleep
And when the dreams have all
come back and settled down
And the stupid nightmares
hang around
with the visions of the one
you're with now
I know I tried to get
you out my broken mind
And to leave the past
we have behind
But it's no use wishing now
for things like that
I want you back
And when the dreams have all
come back and settled down
And the stupid nightmares
hang around
with the visions of the one
you're with now
I know I tried to get
you out my broken mind
And to leave the past
we have behind
But it's no use wishing now
for things like that
I want you back
I want you back
I meet you back
I want you back
