[Verse 1]
All this time I been waiting 'round (But if I'd known)
You'd give up while I'm holding this down (Then I would have) Treated you much differently
I wouldn't have been so cozy
Guess I'll let you figure this out
[Chorus]
Yeah, we go, yeah, we go
Back again, uh, back again, love
Yeah, we go, yeah, we go
Back to love songs and back to friend zones
And didn't even get to go 'round in circles
Now you're acting scared, son
Yeah, we go, yeah, we go
Back again, love
Back again, back again
Back to square one
[Verse 2]
I'm not a big fan of surprise (And I know you know)
I'm not into living no lies ('Cause I told you so)
You never should have came my way
And I should have never let you stay
All this 'cause I swallowed my pride, ha ha
[Refrain]
I (I), you (You), could've been something
More than you (You) knew (Knew)
We'd remain nothing more than friends (Friends)
You knew (You knew), we could do nothing more than friends (Friends) do (Do)
Back to square one
[Chorus]
Yeah, we go, yeah, we go
Back again, uh, back again, love
Yeah, we go, yeah, we go
Back to love songs and back to friend zones
And didn't even get to go 'round in circles
Now you're acting scared, son
Yeah, we go, yeah, we go
Back again, love
Back again, back again
Back to square one
[Bridge]
Hm hm. Ah. I knew you would. You know, a part of me thought, like, this time was gonna be different. But it's like every single time I think you're being straight with me, I think I understand you, and then before you know it, you just go right back around. Ha ha!
[Chorus]
Yeah, we go, yeah, we go
Back again, uh, back again, love
Yeah, we go, yeah, we go
Back to love songs and back to friend zones
And didn't even get to go 'round in circles
Now you're acting scared, son
Yeah, we go, yeah, we go
Back again, love
Back again, back again
Back to square one
[Refrain]
I (I), you (You), could've been something
More than you (You) knew (Knew)
We'd remain nothing more than friends (Friends)
You knew (You knew), we could do nothing more than friends (Friends) do (Do)
Back to square one
Back to square one
[Outro]
Could've been (Ay), could've been
Yeah, yeah
Could've been, could've been, could've been, oh
Back to square one, back to square one (Ay)
I don't get it, love
