Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been manipulated a hundred times but
None of them felt so soft and kind and
Hell is a place for what we tried but
It never felt so wrong in my mind and
Never understood why mama cried
Could it be because our secret time and
I always thought some day you'd find us but
Waiting for you is like slowly dying
[PreChorus]
'Cause you kept me warm
You held me close until you let me go
Now my blood is cold
I never had the time to let you know
[Chorus]
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
[Chorus]
All of me
Take all of me
All of me
All of me
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
[Verse 2]
Where do we go from here?
Hold my heart and set me free
Where do we go from here?
Kiss me with each melody
You're someone I use to fear
Because I loved your forbidden touch
The thought of you cut so deep
So I'll open up my scar
[PreChorus]
'Cause you kept me warm
Just hold me close, I'll never let you go
'Cause now my blood is cold
I'm waiting for the day you call my phone
[Chorus]
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
[Chorus]
All of me
Take all of me
All of me
All of me
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
