[Chorus]
It feels so good to be back
But our love is gone
It's our favourite song
Oh, no
[Verse 1]
I could've made a picture
To tell you all about it
Let's do another circuit
Let's go around the houses
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Oh, life
Got so hard I couldn't bear
Oh, yeah
[Chorus 2]
It feels so good to be back
But our love is gone
It's our favourite song
And even when I'm wrong
I still care
Yeah, I still care for you
It feels so good to be right
So unreal to be alive
Oh, no
[Verse 2]
Let's go wake up the children
To tell them all about it
How you appeared in colour
And left no doubt about it
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Oh, life
It's a cross that we all bear
Oh, yeah
Oh, life
It's just something in the air
Oh, yeah
[Chorus 2]
It feels so good to be back
But our love is gone
It's our favourite song
And even when I'm wrong
I still care
Yeah, I still care for you
It feels so good to be right
So unreal to be alive
Oh, no
[Bridge]
Yeah, I see the world
But sometimes not what's right in front of me
So hold me tonight
I'm so excited I can hardly breathe
I keep breathing though
[Chorus 2]
It feels so good to be back
But our love is gone
It's our favourite song
And even when I'm wrong
I still care
Yeah, I still care for you
It feels so good to be right
So unreal to be alive
Oh, no
