[Verse 1]
We had a life, we had a love
But you don't know what you've got 'til you lose it
Well that was then and this is now
And I want you back
How many times I'm gonna say I'm sorry?
(How many times?)
Oh, yes, I'm sorry
How can something so good go so bad?
How can something so right go so wrong?
I don't know, I don't have all the answers
And I want you back
How many times I'm gonna say I'm sorry?
(How many times?)
Well, you know
[Chorus]
You can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving less you come with me
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe in me
Oh, yeah
[Verse 2]
I only wanted someone to love
But something happened on the way to heaven
It got a hold of me and wouldn't let go
And I want you back
How many times I'm gonna say I'm sorry?
(How many times?)
Oh, yes, I'm sorry
(Sorry)
Well, you know
[Chorus]
You can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving less you come with me
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe me
You can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving 'til it's all over
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, let me show you
[Bridge]
They say you can't take it with you
When you go
And I believe it
But taking what I've got
Or being here with you, you know
I'd rather leave it
[Verse 3]
We had a life, we had a love
But you don't know what you've got 'til you lose it
Well that was then and this is now
And I want you back
How many times I'm gonna say I'm sorry?
(How many times?)
Oh, yes, I'm sorry
(Yes, I'm sorry)
Well, you know
[Chorus]
You can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving less you come with me
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe me
You can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving 'til it's all over
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe in me
