Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You disappeared
Fast as you came
Like dirty water
Down the drain
Like fifteen minutes
Of passing fame
You left me numb as novocaine
[PreChorus]
If I would have seen it coming
I would have kept on running
[Chorus]
Why can't you get it back?
Why can't you get it back?
You got me high, we got down low
You said it felt so beautiful
Why can't you get it back?
Why can't you get it back?
Easy come, easy go
Tell me something, darling, that I don't know
[Verse 2]
Your eyes are empty
Cold as the sea
Your heart is beating
But not for me
When did it hit you?
What made you freeze?
It's like you just woke up
And hit delete
[PreChorus]
If I would have seen it coming
I would have kept on running
[Chorus]
Why can't you get it back?
Why can't you get it back?
You got me high, we got down low
You said it felt so beautiful
Why can't you get it back?
Why can't you get it back?
Easy come, easy go
Tell me something, darling, that I don't know
[Bridge]
Stars fade
Winds blow
Did I move too fast?
Or was I just too slow?
Some things you'll never know
[Chorus]
Why can't you get it back?
Why can't you get it back?
You got me high, we got down low
You said it felt so beautiful
Why can't you get it back?
Why can't you get it back?
Easy come, easy go
Tell me something, darling, that I don't know
[Outro]
Now I have to let you go
Now I have to let you go
Now I have to let you go
Now I have to let you go
