  • Kane called up 'cause I wasn't home
    Daddy took a message, didn't have a phone
    Waiting out front just to get alone
    But now I'm laughing
    Alana lost her head when she had a crush
    Billy St. Reams didn't wanna fuck
    Bad GPA, couldn't get it up
    And I remember it
    Take me back, take me back
    Molly took a shit in the back of the truck
    Didn't even notice, she was too coked up
    Wants to be a dancer, but she had no luck
    And more time's passing
    Take me back, take me back

    (Take me back) I want it
    (Take me back) like I remember
    (Take me back) just thinking about it
    (Take me back) makes me emotional
    (Take me back) I want it
    (Take me back) like I remember
    (Take me back) just thinking about it
    (Take me back) makes me emotional

    All of my friends I loved, I still love
    And all my lovers are locked in time
    I can't pretend I got where I got
    Without changing in my mind
    And it keeps on running

    Pulling out the petals, "Does he love me or not?"
    David only wants to do what David wants
    Had a bald spot, now it's a parking lot
    And I was there for it
    In and out of love since I was nineteen
    Made a few mistakes, now I'm coming clean
    Yeah, I fucked it up, but I took the heat
    And I learned from it

    (Take me back) I feel it
    (Take me back) like a reverie
    (Take me back) just thinking about it
    (Take me back) puts you in front of me
    (Take me back) I feel it
    (Take me back) like a memory
    (Take me back) just thinking about it
    (Take me back) brings us back to me

    Take me back to driving
    Smoking with the windows down
    Trying to waste the day away
    I never get to do that now
    Take me back to Kling Street
    Looking for a place to park
    In an empty parking lot
    Just so you could feel me up
    Take me back to ditching
    Take me back to getting off
    Take me back to wishing
    That nothing would be different
    Take me back, take me back
    Take me back
    Take me back
    Take me back
    Take me back

    (Take me back) I feel it
    (Take me back) like a reverie
    (Take me back) just thinking about it
    (Take me back) puts you in front of me
    (Take me back) I'm riding
    (Take me back) down my old street
    (Take me back) just thinking about it
    (Take me back) brings us back to me Writer/s: Alana Haim, Danielle Haim, Este Haim, Tobias Jesso Jr.
