Just To Have You Back
Lyrics
JUST TO HAVE YOU BACK

Verse:
I don't know how I got so caught up
In gathering all this wealth
But I was trying hard to be someone
Though you loved me for myself
Now I'm where I always wanted to be
With more money than I ever dreamed
But there's no one in this house tonight
But me and your memory

Chorus:
Cause I'm a man who has a lot of things
But I'm a man who has nothing that means anything
Except what money can buy
But nothing I love can love me back
And it's a cold hard fact that I'm staring at
Tonight I'm just a lonely man
Who'd give up everything
Just to have you back

Verse:
It's taken me awhile to understand
How you could leave a successful man
Then I saw myself through your lonely eyes
And I knew I didn't need to ask
Cause all you wanted from me was my love
And that's the one thing that I put last
But I had my priorities wrong
Now I've lost the best I had

Chorus:
Cause I'm a man who has a lot of things
But I'm a man who has nothing that means anything
Except what money can buy
But nothing I love can love me back
And it's a cold hard fact that I'm staring at
Tonight I'm just a lonely man
Who'd give up everything
Just to have you back

Bridge:
But it's too late for that
You chose love over all the things I have

Chorus:
Yeah I'm a man who has a lot of things
But there's nothing I have that means anything
And tonight I'm just a lonely man
But I'd give up everything yeah
Just to have you back
