[Chorus]
I just want you back, now
That's why I tried
So hard but you denied
I'm lost but I say I'm fine
You call, I pick up every time
[Verse 1]
Yeah, I pick up all your calls
'Cause I'm still here, though you're not at all
Baby, I know it wasn't my fault
But I still love you, I still love you
I can't listen to 1975
Without tears welling up in my eyes
All I hear is your voice singing back to me
From my passenger seat
[Chorus]
I just want you back, now
That's why I tried
So hard but you denied
I'm lost but I say I'm fine
You call, I pick up every time
[Verse 2]
So, how do you make it look so easy?
Being friends with you, oh, fazed me
So, when we talk, you're talking through me
But I'm still in love with you, baby, baby
I know you didn't mean to lead me on
Oh, honestly it's partly my fault
I tried to hold on, but you felt it's wrong
You wanna be alone, but
[Chorus]
I just want you back, now
That's why I tried
So hard but you denied
I'm lost but I say I'm fine
You call, I pick up every time
[Bridge]
I'm sorry when I made you mad that one time
Sorry, babe, I didn't mean to make you cry
I know it's hard to say goodbye
When you mean the-
Yeah, you mean the world to me, babe
Don't let me fall this way
I know it's so cliché
But you have my heart, even if it breaks
[Chorus]
I just want you back, now
That's why I tried
So hard but you denied
I'm lost but I say I'm fine
You call, I pick up every time
You back now
That's why I tried
So hard but you denied
Lost, but I say I'm fine
I pick up every time
I pick up every time
I pick up every time
