The Undertones
Got to Have You Back
Got to have you back, I need you
A jealous lie hurt my foolish pride
Made me break your heart
Now our love has died
I see a closing door, a door never more
A door of jealousy between your love and me
Now I face a storm of tears
You took the sunshine from my face
Now I'm just another man
Who walks the undestined way
Without your guiding hand
I can hardly tell when I'm a man
Pride made a fool of me
Now I'm drowning in misery, misery is drowning me
And I got to have you back, I need you
Between the night and day, oh, heaven speed you
'Cause I need you girl
I'm so cold, it's the loneliness
Oh, dark is the emptiness
Since you've been gone in me
Oh, gone is the love I need
Pride destroyed the love we knew
But not my need for you
Without your love around
My whole world is falling down, falling down, all around
And I've got to have you back
(Got to have you back)
(Got to have you back)
(Got to have you back)
Oh, I see a closing door
A door never more
A door of jealousy between your love and me
(Got to have you back) I'm drowning in misery
(Got to have you back) Where pride made a fool of me
(Got to have you back) My whole world is falling down
(Got to have you back) Without your sweet love around
(Got to have you back) I've got to have you back
(Got to have you back) I've got to have you back
(Got to have you back)
