Maisie Peters - Want You Back Lyrics
Official




I was treading water till the minute we met
Till you caught a teacher's daughter
With a dangerous text
I read it like a Bible
And I wore it like a bulletproof vest
Found myself a lover that made everything right
Slept under your covers, it made everything right
Yeah, I was the DJ
And the darling of your passenger side

So I know that you did bad
But if one more person says it I might go mad
Yeah, I know it didn't last
And what was cheap to you
To me, was all I had
The issue is, I know all of this and I
I still want you back
I still want you back

Found yourself a lover, I bet she doesn't sing
But baby, when you touch her I bet she doesn't flinch
She'll have you every summer
When I only had you half of the spring
You left like an assassin, maybe that's for the best
'Cause if you told me what would happen
I think I would have begged
So you've gotta be a coward
And I salvaged little self-respect

Yeah, I know that you did bad
But if one more person says it I might go mad
Yeah, I know it didn't last
And what was cheap to you
To me, was all I had
The issue is, I know all of this and I
I still want you back

I'm not allowed to want you any longer
I must go out with a stranger
I must kiss him to get stronger
So I don't tell a soul
That I'll be yours again tomorrow
If you wanted but you don't wanna

So I know that you did bad
But if one more person says it I might go mad
It wasn't real, it was for me but you know that
And I bet you've thrown away our photographs
The issue is, I know all of this and I
I still want you back
I still want you back
I still want you back
