Back Words

That Jack bottle'd still be sittin' intact on the shelf
There wouldn't be 17 new missed calls on your cell
I'd be yours, you'd be mine
We'd be fine, if only time moved backwards, backwards

Why, baby, why?
Why can't I unsay the way I went and said goodbye, baby, bye?
I'd take 'em all back, you were so damn good
I should have bit my tongue and held you in my arms
Now it's said and done, no matter how hard I try, baby, try, baby I
I can't take back words (I can't take back words)

Let the grass grow back in the tracks you left in the yard
I'd be lettin' down, instead of puttin' up my guard, yes, I would
And if yesterday was tomorrow
I'd turn "go to hell" into "hell don't go", yeah

Why, baby, why?
Why can't I unsay the way I went and said goodbye, baby, bye?
I'd take 'em all back, you were so damn good
Should have bit my tongue and held you in my arms
Now it's said and done, no matter how hard I try, baby, try, baby I
I can't take back the words

I didn't mean
Words I never should have spoke
Girl, what's killin' me
I should have pulled you close
'Stead of lettin' go, oh
Why, baby, why?

Why, baby, why?
Why can't I unsay the way I went and said goodbye, baby, bye?
I'd take 'em all back, you were so damn good
I should have bit my tongue and held you in my arms
Now it's said and done, no matter how hard I try, baby, try, baby I
I can't take back words

No, I can't
I can't take back words
