Now, I, I smoke a lot of cigarettes   And I've been drinking too much wine   You've been patient and understanding   Guess, I went to far this time      I cut you with my drunken words   So much sharper than a knife   But you turned the tables on me, baby   Just by walking out of my life      Too late to say I'm sorry   It won't happen anymore   But you don't believe a word I say   'Cause you've heard it all before   But all the same   Won't you take me back again?      Don't say it's over   After all that we've been through   Take some time to think about it, baby   While I sing my song to you      Your suitcase by the back door   Packed with broken dreams   When night time comes to call on me   I'll know what loneliness means      But all the same   Won't you take me back again?   Take me back again   Take me back again      All I'm asking is forgiveness   Won't you take me back again?   I miss your warm and tender love   Won't you take me back again?      But baby, all the same   Won't you take me back again?   Take me back again   Take me back again      But baby, all the same   Won't you take me back again?   Take me back again   Take me back again      Won't you take me back again?   No, no, no, no, take me back again   Don't walk away from me, baby   I beggin' you please   I beggin' you please      Take me back again   Take me back again
