[Verse 1] You and I, we had it all I wonder why, I let it fall I don't know why I make this hard for you And if I go, and get it back Apologize for all I lack Would you be there to take this heart? Would you do anything at all? [Chorus] Take me back to yesterday I swear it on your life I'll stay on the short side I'll stay on the short side Take me back to yesterday If you can forgive me I will, stay by you only But if you can forget We can get around this Get around this, get around this, get around We can get around this, get around this mess [Verse 2] Now you can go, you can leave I wouldn't blame you for a thing I acted like I never should But I will stay, and I will bleed Stand in the rain; I'm begging please Cause I'll be here for you Yeah, I'll be here for you [Chorus] Take me back to yesterday I swear it on your life I'll stay on the short side I'll stay on the short side Take me back to yesterday If you can forgive me I will, stay by you only But if you can forget We can get around this Get around this, get around this, get around We can get around this, get around this mess [Bridge] So hold on, baby don't you leave me Please just hold on to me [Chorus] Take me back to yesterday I swear it on your life I'll stay on the short side I'll stay on the short side Take me back to yesterday If you can forgive me I will, stay by you only But if you can forget We can get around this Get around this, get around this, get around We can get around this, get around this mess We can get around this Get around this, get around this, get around We can get around this, get around this mess
