I Want You Back
N'Sync · N'Sync (US)
You're all I ever wanted
You're all I ever needed, yeah
So tell me what to do now
'Cause I,I,I,I,I, I Want You Back
Oh it's hard to say I'm sorry
It's hard to make the things I did undone
A lesson I've learned too well, for sure
So don't hang up the phone now
I'm trying to figure out just what to do
I'm going crazy without you
Chorus:
You're all I ever wanted
You're all I ever needed, yeah
So tell me what to do now
When I Want You Back
Baby I remember
The way you used to look at me and say
Promises never last forever
I told you not to worry
I said that everything would be all right
I didn't know then that you were right
Chorus:
You're all I ever wanted
You're all I ever needed, yeah
So tell me what to do now
When I Want You Back
You're the one I want
You're the one I need
Girl, what can I do
You're the one I want
You're the one I need
Tell what can I do
Chorus:
You're all I ever wanted
You're all I ever needed
So tell me what to do now
When I Want You Back
Chorus:
You're all I ever wanted
You're all I ever needed
So tell me what to do now
When I Want You Back
