jack rootes - take me back lyrics

[intro]

school’s out on a sunny day
all the kids leave school to go out and play
a couple of friends is our story’s focus
pleasant conversation and jokes spoken
one boy, one girl in each other’s company
and they lived next door to each other luckily
been close friends ever since childhood
they saw inside each other nothing but good

[verse 1]

alice was a shy girl, not really the social type
so she stays close to that friend of hers, mike
with him since 5, they were best friends
playing video games on the weekends
around each other, they were happy to be honest
both done with school, couldn’t wait for college
ex-sixth formers waiting to move up in the world
hoping to find themselves a cute boy and girl

they had feelings for each other, but kept it secret
fearing a confession will give their friendship weakness
and they both hoped to confess one summer’s day
but they were worried the other didn’t feel the same way
so when they both were separate and in their beds
thoughts of one another spun around their heads
they were so scared of their friendship being done
wishing they could go back to when they were young

[hook]

please take me back
to the way
things were before
all of this

[verse 2]

now it’s the start of august, they’re in the garden
alice thinking mike in the sunlight looked charmin’
as they talked to each other over the back fence
free from the world, free from life’s suspense
and as they talked to each other so hearty
mike gets a text from a friend about a party
in his mind, he hears ‘heaven’ his favourite love song
so he works up courage and invites her along

a few hours p-ss, the night’s finally alive
the two of them dancing under the party lights
then alice turned to mike and finally confessed
whether it was courage or alcohol was anyone’s guess
either way, they went to a bedroom in that place
they started making out, his hands ’round her waist
she was gentily layed down, stripped of her fashion
and the rest of that night became a blur from the p-ssion

[hook]

[verse 3]

but when the morning hit, things got real
alice was so scared about how mike would feel
so she avoided him as often as possible
’cause looking at him made her feel so horrible
but mike on the other hand wanted her so bad
wanted to always be by her side, but as her man
weeks had p-ssed, and the leaves began to change
he wanted to relieve her of all her regrets and pain

so before college started, he went next door
and found her crying on her bedroom floor
he wanted to talk to her, but she was reluctant
’cause she thought their friendship was corrupted
that was until he told her that she was his dream girl
that he loved her and pressed his lips onto hers
and just like that, her pain had all melted away
and she held him close until the end of the day

[outro]

college started the following day
all the kids went back ending their games
this pair of lovers in the same cl-ss
hoping for a lifetime full of joy and laughs
one boy, one girl, hearts beating together
wanting to be with each other forever
childhood friends was something to adore
but now they’re happy it turned into something more

[hook 2]

don’t take me back
to those days
for i’m happy
where i am
(x2)
