I Take It Back - Intellectual

[Verse 1, spoken]

Here he comes now

I've got to tell him somehow

I could put it off 'til later

But it's best I do it now

Baby, listen to me

There is something I must try to say

I've put it off so long

But I've decided that today is the day

My love for you is dyin'

Oh, no, please don't start cryin'

I take it back, I didn't mean it

Please forget the things I said

I take it back, I'm sorry

I must have been out of my head

He's such a man

It must have hurt him a lot if he let me see him cry

But I must try again

This time I'll say goodbye

Baby, you've been good to me

You've always been the best you could

So try and understand me now

The way you've always understood

I can't go on another day

Oh please, don't look at me that way

I take it back, I didn't mean it

Please forget what I just I said

I take it back, I'm sorry

I must have been out of my head

Sometimes it's better to be loved

Than it is to love
