Have you ever, ever lost something you cannot replace
But you still and you still so search anyway
And the earth might reverse is so lonely in the crowd
And I scream in my pillow and I break

[Chorus:]
If I could just go back to yesterday
I'd take it all back
Take it all back, I'd take it all back again
Yeah, my world's got lost since you went away
Everything's black, everything's black
It's as black as rain

Do you wish that your tears didn't come too late?
All the days and the nights blur into one
There's a place that I go in my sweetest memories
Where I see, see your smile in the sun

[Chorus:]
If I could just go back to yesterday
I'd take it all back
Take it all back,
I'd take it all back again
Yeah, my world's got lost since you went away
Everything's black, everything's black
It's as black as rain

And the sun turned black, and the sky turned gray
And the crows all flew away
And the flowers died, and an old man cried
Yeah, the stars all seemed to fade

What do I do without you?
What do I do without you?
What do I do without you?

[Chorus:]
If I could just go back to yesterday
I'd take it all back
Take it all back, I'd take it all back again
Yeah, my world's got lost since you went away
Everything's black, everything's black
It's as black as rain
