think what you will

of MJ, but you cannot listen to his vocal lead-in to this without being moved. It is pure. Soul. RIP Michael.



Let me tell ya now -

When I had you to myself
I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you/Stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch
One glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me/To take a second look

Oh baby give me one more chance
(show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me
(back in your heart)
Oh darlin' I was blind to let you go
(let you go baby)
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)

Yes I do now
(I want you back)
Ooh ooh baby
(I want you back)
Ya ya ya ya
(I want you back)
Na na na na

Tryin' to live without your love
Is one long sleepless night!
Let me show you girl,
That I know wrong from right

Every street you walk on
I leave tearstains on the ground;
Following the girl
I didn't even want around
Let me tell you now -

Oh baby give me one more chance
(show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me
(back in your heart)
Oh darlin' I was blind to let you go
(let you go baby)
But now since I see you in his arms...

Interlude

Forget what happened then
(I want you back)
Let me live again

Oh baby I was blind to let you go
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)
Spare me of this cause
Gimme back what I lost

Oh baby I need one more chance, ha!
I tell ya that I love ya
Baby, baby, baby,
I want you back
