I Want You Back Lyrics

The room has suddenly grown cold
And outside in the street it's raining
You packed your bags and said good-bye
You took my heart without explaining.
How could you go
How could you go
We had a love most people never know.
Stop
Before you break my heart.

[Chorus]
I want you back
Don't care what I have to do
I want you back

I want you back
Gotta get it through to you
I want you back

If I can make you see only you can fill the need in me

If you walk away you'll regret it someday
Please
Stay!

This room is full of memories
And shadows of the past remind me
Of all the love I gave in vain
And all the hurt I feel inside me.
I want you back
I want you back
We had a love most people never know.
Stop
Before you break my heart.

[Chorus]

I want you back
I
I want you back

I want you back
I
I want you
I want you back!
We had a love most people never know
Stop
Before you break my heart.

[Chorus]
