Writers: Leo Sayer & Albert Hammond

you know I thought I could live without you 
I thought I could get along 
but I never realized that I could be so wrong 
was I a fool to leave you 
or was I a fool to let you go? 
doesn't seem to matter much now baby 
I should have never let you go 

I want you back 
I want you back 
and I will never stop until I got you back, aah, aah 

I wander the road where we used to walk 
and lotsof people pass by 
they all look like they're in love 
everybody but me 
I see your face in the crowd 
I hear your voice everywhere I go 
and when I turn around thinking you've come back 
ah, you're never, never, never there 

I want you back 
I want you back 
and I'll keep on searchin' until you're really here 
I want you back 
I want you back 
and I will never stop until the love I've got 
is back in my heart to stay 

I want you back 
I want you back 
and I'll keep on searchin' until the love I got 
is back in my arms until I got you back 

I want you back 
I want you back 
and I'll never stop until the love I got 
is back in my arms until I got you back
