Back To The Start

Lily Allen Lily Allen

When we were growing up, you always looked like you were having such fun
You always were and you always will be the taller and the prettier one
People seem to love you
They gravitate towards you
That's why I started to hate you so much
And I just completely ignored you

I don't know why I felt the need to keep it up for, oh, so long
It's all my fault, I'm sorry, you did absolutely nothing wrong
I don't know why I felt the need to drag it out for all these years
All the pain I've caused you
The constant flow of all the tears

Believe me when I say that I cannot apologise enough
When all you ever wanted from me was a token of my love
And if it's not too late
Could you, please, find it deep within your heart
To try and go back, go back to the start?
Go back to the start

I've been so evil with my constant invasions
But you made it so easy for me, you always rise to the occasion
I'll always pull you up on
Every stupid thing that you say
But I found it so entertaining
Messing around with your head

I don't know why I felt the need to keep it up for, oh, so long
It's all my fault, I'm sorry, you did absolutely nothing wrong
I don't know why I felt the need to drag it out for all these years
All the pain I've caused you
The constant flow of all the tears

Believe me when I say that I cannot apologise enough
When all you ever wanted from me was a token of my love
And if it's not too late
Could you, please, find it deep within your heart
To try and go back, go back to the start?
Go back to the start
Go back to the start
Go back to the start

This is not just a song
I intend to put these words into action
I hope that it sums up the way
That I feel, to your satisfaction

I don't know why I felt the need to keep it up for, oh, so long
It's all my fault, I'm sorry, you did absolutely nothing wrong
I don't know why I felt the need to drag it out for all these years
All the pain I've caused you
The constant flow of all the tears

Believe me when I say that I cannot apologise enough
When all you ever wanted from me was a token of my love
And if it's not too late
Could you, please, find it deep within your heart
To try and go back, go back to the start?
Go back to the start
