| Because the drums — the drums — the drums
|
| I hear them gathering
|
| I found the sailor stuck inside its cheek
|
| So it’s the chains the chains the chains
|
| That I’ve been rattling
|
| I had a chance that I didn’t take
|
| I had to mend the past
|
| I was afraid to make a mistake
|
| Now its to late to ask
|
| Give it back
|
| I know a fortune can be lost or won
|
| Without the chance — the chance — the chance
|
| To stop and look around
|
| And we can argue in our native tongue
|
| About the plans — the plans — the plans
|
| That we forget about
|
| I had a chance that I didn’t take
|
| I had to mend the past
|
| I was afraid to make a mistake
|
| Now its to late to ask
|
| Give it back
|
| Give it back
|
| Give it back
|
| Give it back
|
| And if you waited on the weather
|
| And if the sun comes at last
|
| And if you know you’re feeling better
|
| It’s like the night without the black
|
| Give it back
|
| Give it back
|
| Give it back
|
| Give it back
|
| Give it back (give it back, give it back, give it back)
|
| Give it back (give it back, give it back, give it back)
|
| Give it back (give it back, give it back, give it back)
|
| Give it back (give it back, give it back, give it back)
|
| Give it back |
