Want You Back Songtext
von Maisie Peters

I was treading water ′til the minute we met
'Til you caught a teacher′s daughter with a dangerous text
I read it like a Bible and I wore it like a bulletproof vest

Found myself a lover that made everything rhyme
Slept under your covers, it made everything right
Yeah, I was the DJ and the darling of your passenger side

So I know that you did bad
But if one more person says it, I might go mad
Yeah, I know it didn't last
And what was cheap to you, to me was all I had
The issue is I know all of this and I
I still want you back
I still want you back

Found yourself a lover, I bet she doesn't sing
But baby when you touch her, I bet she doesn′t flinch
She′ll have you every summer when I only had you half of a spring
You left like an assassin, maybe that's for the best
′Cause if you'd told me what would happen, I think I would′ve begged
So you got to be a coward and I salvaged a little self-respect


Yeah, I know that you did bad
But if one more person says it, I might go mad
Yeah, I know it didn't last
And what was cheap to you, to me was all I had
The issue is I know all of this and I
I still want you back

I am not allowed to want you any longer
I must go out with a stranger
I must kiss him to get stronger
So I don′t tell a soul
But I'd be yours again tomorrow if you wanted
But you don't wanna

So I know that you did bad
But if one more person says it, I might go mad
It wasn′t real, it was for me, but you know that
And I bet you′ve thrown away our photographs
The issue is I know all of this and I
I still want you back
I still want you back
I still want you back
