Lyrics:
TAKING ME BACK
I’LL BET YOU DO
WHEN YOU TAKE OUT THE FIGURES
AND YOU PULL ALL THE TRIGGERS,
WELL YOU’RE TAKING ME BACK
YOU’RE TAKING ME BACK.
WHEN YOU LISTEN TO MYSTICS
AS YOU LAY AT YOUR PICNICS,
YOU’RE TAKING ME BACK.
YOU’RE TAKING ME BACK.
I’LL BET YOU DO,
BUT NOT FOR LONG.
I’M ALONE,
BUT NOT FOR LONG.
WHEN I’M DOWN ON THE FLOOR YOU’LL SEE
THAT NO ONE WILL NOTICE ME
IT’S BREAKING MY BACK.
BREAKING MY BACK.
WHEN YOU DROP THE MAIL OFF TO ME
AND MAKE US BOTH COFFEE
ARE YOU TAKING IT BLACK?
ARE YOU TAKING ME BACK?
I’LL BET YOU DO,
BUT NOT FOR LONG.
I’LL BET YOU DO FEEL ALONE,
BUT NOT FOR LONG.
IT’S BREAKING MY BACK.
IT’S BREAKING MY BACK.
WHEN YOU FORGIVE THE FRICTION
AND YOU TALK ABOUT CHRISTMAS,
ARE YOU TAKING ME BACK?
TAKING ME BACK.
WHEN I RECALL THE HISTORY
THESE KIDS ARE A MYSTERY
THEY’RE TAKING ME BACK.
THEY ARE TAKING ME BACK.
TAKING ME BACK.
I’LL BET YOU DO.
I’LL BET, I’LL BET YOU,
DO.
FEAR OF THE DAWN
WHEN THE MOON IS ABOVE YOU
DOES IT TELL YOU I LOVE YOU
BY S)C)R)E)A)M)I)N)G?
LIKE WHEN THE SUN STARTS TO FALL
AND IT’S CRUSHING THE WALLS AND THE CEILING?
I CAN’T CONTROL WHEN THE DARK COVERS
THE LIGHT FROM THE SPARKS IN THE CITY
TO KEEP US ALIVE
I’M GONNA HOLD YOU AND HIDE ELECTRICITY
NO MORE THAN TWO CIGARETTES
OR THE LIGHT FROM THE MATCH WILL BETRAY US
BUT IN THE DARK I CAN BET
YOU AND I WON’T REGRET THAT IT SAVED US.

“Taking Me Back (Gently)” Lyrics:
Ill Bet You Do
When You Take Out The Figures
And When You Pull All The Triggers,
Well Youre Taking Me Back
Youre Taking Me Back.
When You Listen To Mystics
As You Lay At Your Picnics.
Youre Taking Me Back.
Youre Taking Me Back.
Ill Bet You Do,
But Not For Long.
Im Alone,
But Not For Long.
When Im Down On The Floor Youll See
That No One Will Notice Me
Its Breaking My Back.
Breaking My Back.
When You Drop The Mail Off To Me
And Make Us Both Coffee
Are You Taking It Black?
Are You Taking Me Back?
Ill Bet You Do,
But Not For Long.
Ill Bet You Do Feel Alone,
But Not For Long.
Its Breaking My Back
Its Breaking My Back
When You Forgive The Friction
And You Talk About Christmas,
Are You Taking Me Back?
Taking Me Back.
When I Recall The History
These Kids Are A Mystery
Theyre Taking Me Back
They Are Taking Me Back
Taking Me Back.
Ill Bet You Do.
Ill Bet, Ill Bet You,
Do.
