Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The days are tense and the nights are long
The times are gone when we got along
What about mediation?
What happened to the middle ground?
Let's take things back to like when we met
It's time to get way on down
[Verse 2]
Let's go back a little
I wanna feel like way back when
Let's hold back a little
Let's make things good again
Take things back
Take things back
[Verse 3]
Been goin' on for quite some time
Dealin' with the mess around
Life's too short and we're too good
To let each other down
We need conciliation
We need love to abound
Like years ago, way back when
Get back to the higher ground
[Verse 4]
Let's go back a little
I wanna feel like way back when
Let's hold back a little
Let's make things good again
Take things back
Take things back
[Verse 5]
Let's go back a little
I wanna feel like way back when
Let's hold back a little
Let's make things good again
Take things back
Oh, oh
Take things back
Hey, let's hold back a little
Hey, take things back
[Verse 6]
Like they used to be
Take things back
Oh, baby, oh, yeah
Take things back
