Want You Back
Want You Back Lyrics
Oh, oh, oh
[Verse 1]
Like a coat that I sold in the summer
Now I'm cold and I want you back, want you back
Like an old baby doll that some other kid stole
I want you back, want you back
[Pre-Chorus]
Diggin' out your old letters
Sleepin' in your old sweater
Guess I should have known better
'Cause you're gone, I want, I want, I want you
[Chorus]
Ridin' in your front seat, tellin' me you want me
Nothin' could destroy a love like this, until I did
Runnin' over red lights, makin' up a good life
Couldn't we go back to what we had? Just like that
'Cause I want you back
[Verse 2]
Like a float in the ocean, our woodwork broke
But I want you you back, want you back
Like a kiss on the face that the rain washed away
I want you back, want you back (Mmm)
Diggin' out your old letters
Sleepin' in your old sweater
Guess I should have known better
'Cause you're gone, I want, I want, I want you
[Chorus]
Ridin' in your front seat, tellin' me you want me
Nothin' could destroy a love like this, until I did
Runnin' over red lights, makin' up a good life
Couldn't we go back to what we had? Just like that
'Cause I want you back
[Interlude]
Oh, oh, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Diggin' out your old letters
Sleepin' in your old sweater
Guess I should have known better
'Cause you're gone, I want, I want, I want you
[Chorus]
Ridin' in your front seat, tellin' me you want me
Nothin' could destroy a love like this, until I did (Oh)
Runnin' over red lights, makin' up a good life
Couldn't we go back to what we had? Just like that
'Cause I want you back
Now I know, now I know
Now I got you in my head
Now I know, now I know
You're gone, I want, I want, I want you
[Outro]
Runnin' over red lights, makin' up a good life
Couldn't we go back to what we had? Just like that
'Cause I want you back

so this has been a long time coming. it’s kinda crazy that we spent all of 2018 working on music, but haven’t been able to share any of it until now. the good news is, all that is gonna change. cool thing #1: we just signed our first record deal ever with island records, which is SUPER exciting for us. cool thing #2: we have a ton of new music on our computer. cool thing #3: there are only two escalators in the entire state of wyoming
this song is really special to us, and we can’t wait to see what you guys think. huge shoutout to Léon for providing the most amazing vocals we could have asked for ❤️
