Can’t Get It Back

[Chorus: All]
Gave you my love and I can't get it back
Gave you all my time and I can't get it back
Now the ring that you gave me, you can't have it back
'Cause it's just not going down like that
Gave you my time and I can't get it back
Gave you all my love and I can't get it back
Now the things that you gave me, you want them back
But it's just not going down like that

[Verse 1: Sabrina]
Verse one, when we begun
You know you had a sister all sprung when we hung
'Cause the brother was nice with his tongue
As we played every day
You always knew, just what to say
As we laid and planned to get married the very next May
As time moved on, we were torn
Used to love me from dusk 'til dawn
Now you trippin' from night 'til morn
You changed your soul
'Til you can no longer keep me warm
'Cause the loving we shared was gone

[Pre-Chorus: Sabrina]
'Cause you better know
That you can't get back
What you put in this relationship
I'm telling you so
'Cause I can't get back
All of my kissing and hugging and loving, so I'm telling you

[Chorus: Mis-Teeq, Sabrina]
Gave you my love and I can't get it back
Gave you all my time and I can't get it back
Now the ring that you gave me, you can't have it back
'Cause it's just not going down like that
Gave you my time and I can't get it back
Gave you all my love and I can't get it back (Oh, oh, oh)
Now the things that you gave me, you want them back
But it's just not going down like that

[Verse 2: Sabrina]
Verse two, now we're through
Out my life and away love flew, and it's cool
Put the glass shoe on another young fool
'Cause I had slept while you crept
Couldn't take the heat, so away you stepped, now I'm set
And don't come back for nothing that you left
I gave you my all
But if it's too small, I can't call
'Cause every playa's got to ball
As seasons change, you couldn't hang
But if you think you're coming back for this ring

[Pre-Chorus: Sabrina, Alesha & Su-Elise]
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) 'Cause you better know
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) That you can't get back
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) What you put in this relationship
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) I'm telling you so
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) 'Cause I can't get back
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) All of my kissing and hugging and loving, so I'm telling you

[Chorus: Mis-Teeq, Sabrina]
Gave you my love and I can't get it back
Gave you all my time and I can't get it back
Now the ring that you gave me, you can't have it back
'Cause it's just not going down like that (Oh, oh, oh)
Gave you my time and I can't get it back (Oh, oh, oh)
Gave you all my love and I can't get it back (No, you can't)
Now the things that you gave me, you want them back (You can't)
But it's just not going down like that (You can't have it, no)

[Verse 3: Alesha]
Now let me tell you something 'bout me
I don't need no lying man standing next to me
Gonna expose the jo-jokes, the cheatings and no-no
And if you say "Suck me one more time"
Then I'm gonna flip back to where I came from
Where people on the streets tell me you've done wrong
Twenty for the ride if you wanna play hard
Tonight if I tap, I don't forget
Any time you come around you take what's mine
The ring on my finger meant for a lifetime
Don't worry yourself 'cause I am past your kind
I'm too smart for you, I'm gonna shine for life, that's right

[Bridge: Sabrina, Alesha]
Get out (Out), out (Out), out (Out)
No you can't have it back, silly rabbit

[Pre-Chorus: Sabrina]
'Cause you better know
That you can't get back
What you put in this relationship
I'm telling you so
'Cause I can't get back
All of my kissing and hugging and loving, so I'm telling you

[Chorus: Mis-Teeq, Sabrina]
Gave you my love and I can't get it back
Gave you all my time and I can't get it back
Now the ring that you gave me, you can't have it back (Oh, oh, oh)
'Cause it's just not going down like that
Gave you my time and I can't get it back
Gave you all my love and I can't get it back
Now the things that you gave me, you want them back
'Cause it's just not going down like that
