TOTO LYRICS - Takin' It Back

"Takin' It Back"



I think I'll go it alone

You should've shown me if you cared

Lies will turn a heart into stone

Few would have known me if they dared



'Cause I'm takin' it back where it all began

The house on the cape

The place on the sand

I'd take it all back if it'd just make you understand



Girl how I've tried to forget you

Now it would take more than I could buy

Sure I could lie to myself too

But that won't work seeing that I've tried



'Cause I'm takin' it back where it all began

I'd live in a shack

Eating out of a can

I'd take it all back if it'd just make you understand



[Instrumental break]



Now that I'm feeling assured

You'd better watch your every move

Stop, think about every word

It's looking like you're going to lose



'Cause I'm takin' it back where it all began

The house on the cape

The place on the sand

I'd take it all back if it'd just make you understand



You should've shown me if you cared [repeats out]
