Some Things You Can't Take Back
Well, she was lookin' out the window
And I was starin' at the door
The dog was sleepin' on the sofa
This place has never been this quiet before
You can't pretend it never happened
You can't pretend it's still the same
You can't say you were only jokin'
You can't keep thinkin' that things can go on this way
Some things you can't take back
Though you wish you could
Some things you can't take back
Though the glass has been broke
And the milk has been spilled
And your love's on the line
Some things you can't take back
When someone says there's no tomorrow
When the writing's on the wall
After all is cried and spoken
And your poor heart has taken such a fall
Some things you can't take back
Though you wish you could
Some things you can't take back
Though the glass has been broke
And the milk has been spilled
And your love's on the line
Some things you can't take back
If I could reset the clock and go back in time
I'd erase the thoughts that went through my mind
You know I never would leave
And I'd still have you with me
You can't pretend it never happened
You can't pretend it's still the same
You can't say you were only jokin'
You can't keep thinkin' that things can go on this way
Some things you can't take back
Though you wish you could
Some things you can't take back
Though the glass has been broke
And the milk has been spilled
And your love's on the line
Some things you can't take back
'Cause in the cold light of day
The pieces all blew away
And now I'm livin' a lie
Some things you can't take back
And I was starin' at the door
The dog was sleepin' on the sofa
This place has never been this quiet before
You can't pretend it never happened
You can't pretend it's still the same
You can't say you were only jokin'
You can't keep thinkin' that things can go on this way
Some things you can't take back
Though you wish you could
Some things you can't take back
Though the glass has been broke
And the milk has been spilled
And your love's on the line
Some things you can't take back
When someone says there's no tomorrow
When the writing's on the wall
After all is cried and spoken
And your poor heart has taken such a fall
Some things you can't take back
Though you wish you could
Some things you can't take back
Though the glass has been broke
And the milk has been spilled
And your love's on the line
Some things you can't take back
If I could reset the clock and go back in time
I'd erase the thoughts that went through my mind
You know I never would leave
And I'd still have you with me
You can't pretend it never happened
You can't pretend it's still the same
You can't say you were only jokin'
You can't keep thinkin' that things can go on this way
Some things you can't take back
Though you wish you could
Some things you can't take back
Though the glass has been broke
And the milk has been spilled
And your love's on the line
Some things you can't take back
'Cause in the cold light of day
The pieces all blew away
And now I'm livin' a lie
Some things you can't take back
