Well I don't know how it happened Must have been something I said We had some words, she said some things I guess I must have lost my head It's been a week since I left her And I can't go on this way I'll call her up and swallow my pride When she says hello I'll say I .. want you back again Oooohhhh what a fool I've been I... won't do that again My tears won't stop and my heart won't mend I want you back again --- Instrumental --- So I gather up all of my courage And I found my last dime I need it so , but God only knows If we can make up this time I tremble as I dial her number Ohh I hope I'm not to late I say it's me, and I hold my breath And softly I hear her say I .. want you back again Oooohhhh what a fool I've been I.. won't do that again My tears won't stop and my heart won't mend I want you back again...
