Take It Back

Her love rains down on me
Easy as the breeze
I listen to her breathing
It sounds like the waves on the sea
I was thinking all about her
Burning with rage and desire
We were spinning into darkness;
(And) the earth was on fire

She could take it back
She might take it back some day

So I spy on her, I lie to her
I make promises I cannot keep
Then I hear the laughter rising
Rising from the deep
And I make her prove her love for me
I take all that I can take
And I push her to the limit
To see if she will break

She might take it back
She could take it back some day

Now I have seen the warnings
Screaming from all sides
It's easy to ignore them
And God knows I've tried
All of this temptation
It turned my faith to lies
Until I couldn't see the danger
Or hear the rising tide

She can take it back, she will take it back some day
She can take it back, she will take it back some day
She will take it back, she will take it back some day
