I Want To Go Back There Again (Expanded Edition Bonus Track)

(album: Thelma Houston - 1972)

You don't treat me gentle
Like you used to do
Forgetting you, baby, is hard to do
It's hard to do
You guided me to the rainbows
And you took me to a place that I've never been
Then you turned away and you closed the door
Leaving me alone like I was before
Memories that I can't erase
As I sit and think of that special place

I wanna go back there again
I wanna go back there again

Now you say it's over
And I know it's true
But if it's really over
Why did you, oh, why did you
Why'd you take my hand and lead me on?
Why'd you make me feel that I was grown?
I thought that I could really play the game
But it's me that's left here with all the pain
Riding high like never before
You fill me up and then you slam the door

I wanna go back there again
I wanna go back there again

Now you left me in a world on my own
Boy, you left me to face life alone
Everybody I meet, they explain to me
That your love shouldn't mean a thing to me
But, they ain't never seen the rainbow's end
And they ain't been to the place we've been

Oh, I wanna go back there again, baby
I wanna go back there again

Go back to the bridge I crossed
Go back to the love I lost
Go back like it used to be
Go back, just you and me

I wanna go back there again, baby
I wanna go back there again

Take me back, I got to go back
I need to go back, baby
Please, just one more time

I wanna go back there again
I wanna go back there again

Let's go back, take me back
I got to go back, baby
Need you, need you so

I wanna go back there again
I wanna go back there again
