| I thought you were the one for me | |
| I thought you were the remedy | |
| I thought so many things | |
| But I now I just can't think about it | |
| I brought you breakfast in your bed | |
| I filled you up with tenderness | |
| I told you I believe in meant to be | |
| But now I doubt it | |
| Because you (you) | |
| You turn my whole world upside down | |
| And I'm take, take, takin' it back | |
| Everything that I said | |
| Every word that I thought that I meant | |
| Just forget | |
| Take, takin' it back | |
| Might be better to give then recieve | |
| But I'm empty so so much for that | |
| (so much for that) | |
| I'm through with generosity | |
| Look where that stuff has gotten me | |
| Just let it go 'cause the girl I know | |
| Isn't what she's cracked up to be | |
| I bought you bling at Tiffany's | |
| I wrote you endless poetry | |
| I gave you everything that a girl could need | |
| But there was another | |
| See you (you) | |
| You lied and you cried so perfectly | |
| And I'm take, take, takin' it back | |
| Everything that I said | |
| Every word that I thought that I meant | |
| Just forget | |
| Take, takin' it back | |
| Might be better to give then recieve | |
| But I'm empty so so much for that | |
| And now, I'm not about to save it (oh) | |
| That's too late, it's faded to black | |
| Take, take, takin' it back | |
| Everything that I said | |
| Every word that I thought that I meant | |
| IT WAS AN ACT | |
| Take, takin' it back | |
| Might be better to give then recieve | |
| But I'm empty, empty | |
| And I'm take, take, takin' it back | |
| Everything that I said | |
| Every word that I thought that I meant | |
| Just forget | |
| Take, take, takin' it back | |
| Might be better to give then recieve | |
| But I'm empty, so so much for that | |
| (so much for that) |
