Back for good by Take That

1. Listen to the song and complete the gaps with the words you hear:

I guess now it's time for me to give up

I feel it's time
Got a picture of you beside me
Got your lipstick mark still on your coffe cup
Got a fist of pure emotions
Got a head of shattered dreams
Gotta leave it, gotta leave it all behind now

Whatever I said, whatever I did, I didn't mean it

I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood

Unaware but underlined I figured out the story

It wasn't good
But in the corner of my mind I celebrated glory
But that was not to be
In the twist of separation you excelled at being free
Can't you find a little room inside for me

Whatever I said, whatever I did, I didn't mean it

I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood

And we'll be together, this time is forever

We'll be fighting and forever we will be
So complete in our love
We will never be uncovered again
